The remote host is missing an update to dhcp3 announced via advisory DSA 1833-1. Several remote vulnerabilities have been discovered in ISC's DHCP implementation. It was discovered that dhclient does not properly handle overlong subnet mask options, leading to a stack-based buffer overflow and possible arbitrary code execution. The DHCP server may terminate when receiving certain well-formed DHCP requests, provided that the server configuration mixes host definitions using dhcp-client-identifier and hardware ethernet

implementation:

It was discovered that dhclient does not properly handle overlong
subnet mask options, leading to a stack-based buffer overflow and
possible arbitrary code execution.  (CVE-2009-0692)

Christoph Biedl discovered that the DHCP server may terminate when
receiving certain well-formed DHCP requests, provided that the server
configuration mixes host definitions using dhcp-client-identifier
and hardware ethernet.  This vulnerability only affects the lenny
versions of dhcp3-server and dhcp3-server-ldap.  (CVE-2009-1892)

For the old stable distribution (etch), these problems have been fixed
in version 3.0.4-13+etch2.

For the stable distribution (lenny), this problem has been fixed in
version 3.1.1-6+lenny2.

For the unstable distribution (sid), these problems will be fixed
soon.

We recommend that you upgrade your dhcp3 packages.";
