Background ========= Icinga is an open source computer system and network monitoring application. It was originally created as a fork of the Nagios system monitoring application in 2009. Affected packages ================ ------------------------------------------------------------------- Package / Vulnerable / Unaffected ------------------------------------------------------------------- 1 net-analyzer/icinga < 1.14.2 Vulnerable! ------------------------------------------------------------------- NOTE: Certain packages are still vulnerable. Users should migrate to another package if one is available or wait for the existing packages to be marked stable by their architecture maintainers.
