The remote host is missing an update to gopher
announced via advisory DSA 832-1.

Several buffer overflows have been discovered in gopher, a
text-oriented client for the Gopher Distributed Hypertext protocol,
that can be exploited by a malicious Gopher server.

For the old stable distribution (woody) this problem has been fixed in
version 3.0.3woody4.
