Package: gkrellmd
Version: 2.2.5-1.3
Severity: grave
Justification: user security hole


When I add a "allow-host 127.0.0.1" line to gkrellmd.conf I can connect to the 
server from anywhere included a computer which has nothing to do with the 
server.

allow-host localhost seems ok.
allow-host ip where ip<>127.0.0.1 seem ok as well

But allow-host 127.0.0.1 makes a big hole. The server's ip is 138.195.156.146 
but I can even connect from my home where I've got a dynamic ip.

I use IPv6. (Does it have any relationship to the problem ?)

Thx.
