Detailed Explanation for this Vulnerability Test
Christoph Martin noticed that upon configuration mason, which
interactively creates a Linux packet filtering firewall, does not
install the init script to actually load the firewall during system
boot. This will leave the machine without a firewall after a reboot.
For the old stable distribution (woody) this problem has been fixed in
version 0.13.0.92-2woody1.
For the stable distribution (sarge) this problem has been fixed in
version 1.0.0-2.2.
For the unstable distribution (sid) this problem has been fixed in
