The remote host is missing an update for the 'gnome-vfs' package(s) announced via the referenced advisory. GNOME VFS is the GNOME virtual file system, providing modular architecture and supporting various local and remote file systems and protocols including HTTP, FTP, and others. A buffer overflow flaw was discovered in the GNOME virtual file system when handling data returned by CDDB servers, allowing attackers to execute arbitrary code on the victim's machine (CVE-2005-0706). Users are advised to upgrade to the updated packages containing a backported patch to correct this issue
