Description:	Description: The remote host is missing updates announced in advisory FLSA-2004:1947. A security audit of glibc revealed a flaw in the resolver library which was originally reported as affecting versions of ISC BIND 4.9. This flaw also applied to glibc versions before 2.3.2.

The Common Vulnerabilities and Exposures project (cve.mitre.org) has assigned the name CVE-2002-0029 to this issue. All users of glibc should upgrade to these updated packages, which resolve these issues.
