DESCRIPTION
 "webalizer"[1][4] is a program which analyzes web server log files
 and generates lots of useful statistics.
 
 Spybreak reported[2] a buffer overflow vulnerability[3] in the DNS
 resolver code. This flaw could possibly be exploited by a remote
 attacker in control of a DNS server which would be queried by the
 webalizer program.
 
 Webalizer in Conectiva Linux is not executed by default, it is
 necessary for the user to configure and enable a cron job for it to
 run.


SOLUTION
 It is recommended that all webalizer users upgrade their packages.
