The remote host is missing an update for the Debian 'oprofile' package(s) announced via the DSA-2254-2 advisory. OProfile is a performance profiling tool that is configurable by opcontrol, its control utility. The tool has weak security controls and can be exploited by unauthorized users to escalate their privileges
