The remote host is missing an update for the 'apt' package(s) announced via the USN-1169-1 advisory. William Grant discovered that APT incorrectly validated inline GPG signatures. If a remote attacker were able to perform a machine-in-the-middle attack, this flaw could potentially be used to install altered packages. Please install the updated package(s)
