Detailed Explanation for this Vulnerability Test
Several problems have been discovered in freeradius, a
high-performance and highly configurable RADIUS server. The Common
Vulnerabilities and Exposures project identifies the following
problems:
SuSE researchers have discovered several off-by-one errors may
allow remote attackers to cause a denial of service and possibly
execute arbitrary code.
Due to insufficient input validation it is possible for a remote
attacker to bypass authentication or cause a denial of service.
The old stable distribution (woody) does not contain this package.
For the stable distribution (sarge) this problem has been fixed in
version 1.0.2-4sarge1.
For the unstable distribution (sid) this problem has been fixed in

We recommend that you upgrade your freeradius package.
