Description:	Summary: The remote host is missing an update for the Debian 'needrestart' package(s) announced via the DLA-3013-1 advisory. Vulnerability Insight: Jakub Wilk discovered a local privilege escalation in needrestart, a utility to check which daemons need to be restarted after library upgrades. Regular expressions to detect the Perl, Python, and Ruby interpreters are not anchored, allowing a local user to escalate privileges when needrestart tries to detect if interpreters are using old source files. For Debian 9 stretch, this problem has been fixed in version 2.11-3+deb9u2. We recommend that you upgrade your needrestart packages.
