Package: nfs-common (from nfs-utils)
Vulnerability: remote root exploit
Debian-specific: no
The version of nfs-common distributed in Debian GNU/Linux 2.2 (a.k.a
potato), as well as in the unstable (woody) distribution, is vulnerable to a
remote root compromise. No exploit is known to exist in the wild, but the
vulnerability has been verified.
This has been fixed in version 0.1.9.1-1 of the nfs-common package. We
recommend that you update nfs-common immediately.
