Package: nagios3-cgi
Version: 3.5.1.dfsg-2+b1
Severity: wishlist

The main nagios webpage
  /usr/share/nagios3/htdocs/index.php
loads
  /usr/share/nagios3/htdocs/main.php
which cotains some javascript that loads
  /usr/share/nagios3/htdocs/rss-feed.php
  /usr/share/nagios3/htdocs/rss-newsfeed.php
which pull remote RSS feeds from
  http://www.nagios.org/backend/feeds/corepromo
  http://www.nagios.org/backend/feeds/frontpage/

This might be undesirable for a couple reasons:
1) it would reveal to a network evesdropper that a system has
  nagios installed, which could prompt attacks.
2) it will fail if the server does not have a route to the internet
3) it uses a tiny amount of bandwidth

These are all relatively minor issues, but in general it would be
better if debian packages did not load remote resources (although it's
not strictly against policy) so I think this is only 'wishlist'
severity.

Thanks,
