Package: mon
Version: 1.2.0-9
Severity: important

By default mon accepts connections from the world on port 2583, this exposes
information about the system to potentially hostile parties and is not what the
sysadmin would expect.  Most daemons are configured to listen on localhost by 
default
to prevent such problems with a comment in the configuration to show how to 
change
that.

I suggest something like the following in the default /etc/mon/mon.cf:

# comment this to listen on INADDR_ANY
serverbind = 127.0.0.1

# uncomment this to listen on a non-default port
#servport = 2583

# list of space separated regexs of clients to accept
clientallow = ^127\.0\.0\.1$

I believe that the above would decrease the amount of work spent by sysadmins to
correctly configure their systems and will lead to a more secure Internet in 
general.
