LogWatch is a customizable log analysis system. LogWatch parses
through your system’s logs for a given period of time and creates a
report analyzing areas that you specify, in as much detail as you
require.

A bug was found in the logwatch secure script. If an attacker is able to
inject an arbitrary string into the /var/log/secure file, it is possible to
prevent logwatch from detecting malicious activity. The Common
Vulnerabilities and Exposures project (cve.mitre.org) has assigned the name
CAN-2005-1061 to this issue.

All users of logwatch are advised to upgrade to this updated
package, which contain backported fixes for this issue.
