Synopsis

The remote Debian host is missing a security update.

Description

Remote denial of service and several memory management issues were fixed in the epson2 driver.

For Debian 8 'Jessie', this problem has been fixed in version 1.0.24-8+deb8u3.

We recommend that you upgrade your sane-backends packages if you are using the epson2 driver.

Solution

Upgrade the affected packages.
