We have received a report from Michal Zalewski that the klogd program
as provided by the sysklogd was vulnerable to a buffer overrun.

Debian is not affected since it uses a current version of this
package.  The bug was detected and fixed two years ago bei Leeland
Olds.  Details may be grabbed from the klogd.c source file.
