to a denial of service vulnerability. An unauthenticated remote attacker
could send a malformed network packet to a firebird server, which would
cause the server to crash.

version 2.5.2.26540.ds4-1~deb7u2.

For the upcoming stable distribution (jessie), this problem has been
fixed in version 2.5.3.26778.ds4-5.
