Package: libnasl2
Version: 2.2.7-2
Severity: important
Tags: security patch

Hi!

Recently, an advisory about a remote nessus DoS has been published.
See [1] for details. This is supposedly fixed upstream in 2.2.8.

For an immediate fix, and for the sake of fixing Sarge you might find
the Ubuntu patch [2] useful.
  
Please mention the CVE number in the changelog when you fix this to
ease tracking.

Thank you,

Martin
