Debian: DSA-2899-1: openafs security update
Summary
In addition, this update addresses a minor denial of service issue:
the listerer thread of the server will hang for about one second when
receiving an invalid packet, giving the opportunity to slow down
the server to an unusable state by sending such packets.
For the oldstable distribution (squeeze), this problem has been fixed
in version 1.4.12.1+dfsg-4+squeeze3.
For the stable distribution (wheezy), this problem has been fixed in
version 1.6.1-3+deb7u2.
For the unstable distribution (sid), this problem has been fixed in
version 1.6.7-1.
We recommend that you upgrade your openafs packages.
