The remote host is missing an update for the Debian 'newsbeuter' package(s) announced via the DLA-1104-1 advisory. It was discovered that podbeuter, the podcast fetcher in newsbeuter, a text-mode RSS feed reader, did not properly escape the name of the media enclosure (the podcast file), allowing a remote attacker to run an arbitrary shell command on the client machine. This is only exploitable if the file is also played in podbeuter. For Debian 7 Wheezy, these problems have been fixed in version 2.5-2+deb7u3. We recommend that you upgrade your newsbeuter packages. Please install the updated package(s)
