 mdeslaur> This is for the redhat-specific plugin, but we need to check
17
 
 mdeslaur> if the debian plugin has the same flaw, as it may be based on
18
 
 mdeslaur> the same code
19
 
 mdeslaur> We don't look vulnerable to this, and embedded newline chars
20
 
 mdeslaur> seem to be handled correctly.
