to a buffer overflow vulnerability in the IRC plugin, allowing a remote
attacker to cause a denial-of-service by sending a specially crafted
filename via DCC.
For the stable distribution (jessie), this problem has been fixed in
version 1.0.1-1+deb8u1.
For the unstable distribution (sid), this problem has been fixed in
