Title:	Mandrake Security Advisory MDKSA-2007:003 (avahi)
Summary:	NOSUMMARY
Description:	Description: The remote host is missing an update to avahi announced via advisory MDKSA-2007:003. The consume_labels function in avahi-core/dns.c in Avahi before 0.6.16 allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (infinite loop) via a crafted compressed DNS response with a label that points to itself. Updated packages are patched to address this issue. Affected: 2007.0 Solution: To upgrade automatically use MandrakeUpdate or urpmi. The verification of md5 checksums and GPG signatures is performed automatically for you. http://www.securityspace.com/smysecure/catid.html?in=MDKSA-2007:003 Risk factor : Medium CVSS Score: 5.0
