+  <description>
+    <p>
+    A flaw in the method used to parse log entries allows remote,
+    unauthenticated attackers to forge authentication attempts from other
+    hosts.
+    </p>
+  </description>
+  <impact type="normal">
+    <p>
+    A remote attacker can add arbitrary hosts to the block list, denying
+    legitimate users access to a resource.

+    <p>
+    There is no known workaround at this time.
+    </p>
