NVD Description

Note: Versions mentioned in the description apply only to the upstream libnet-server-perl package and not the libnet-server-perl package as distributed by Debian. See How to fix? for Debian:unstable relevant fixed versions and status.

Net-Server, when the reverse-lookups option is enabled, does not check if the hostname resolves to the source IP address, which might allow remote attackers to bypass ACL restrictions via the hostname parameter.
