For anyone that hasn't actually read the full
explanation of what happened to debian. This is a debian
patch and a security announcement for the rsync vulnerability
which was used by crackers to compromise both the debian
and gentoo rsync boxes. So if you have rsync, you might want
to check out this article.

"Three OS's from corporate-kings in their towers of glass,
Seven from valley-lords where orchards used to grow,
Nine from dotcoms doomed to die,
one from the dark lord Gates on his dark throne
In the Land of Redmond where the Shadows lie.
one OS to rule them all, one OS to find them,
one OS to bring them all and in the darkness bind them,
In the Land of Redmond where the Shadows lie." john thrum
