Check for the version of the nfs-utils package Detailed Explanation for this Vulnerability Assessment The remote host is missing the patch for the advisory MDKSA-2004:146 (nfs-utils). SGI developers discovered a remote DoS (Denial of Service) condition in the NFS statd server. rpc.statd did not ignore the 'SIGPIPE' signal which would cause it to shutdown if a misconfigured or malicious peer terminated the TCP connection prematurely. The updated packages have been patched to prevent this problem.
