The remote host is missing an update for the 'tracker' package(s) announced via the USN-3101-1 advisory. It was discovered that Tracker incorrectly handled certain malformed GIF images. If a user or automated system were tricked into downloading a specially-crafted GIF image, Tracker could crash, resulting in a denial of service. Please install the updated package(s)
