Synopsis:	Moderate: avahi security update
Issue date:	2009-01-12
CVE Names:	CVE-2008-5081

Hugo Dias discovered a denial of service flaw in avahi-daemon. A remote
attacker on the same local area network (LAN) could send a
specially-crafted mDNS (Multicast DNS) packet that would cause avahi-daemon
to exit unexpectedly due to a failed assertion check. (CVE-2008-5081)

After installing the update, the avahi-daemon will be restarted automatically.

SL 5.x
