Package: hylafax-server Version: 1:4.2.1-5sarge3 Severity: grave Tags: security Justification: renders package unusable
Some line modems misinterpret human voice as V.9x, etc, connection requests. This makes the server spawn getty-link with attach to the line modem device which locks the device 4E4 even after OnHook. System cant fax and receive anymore until administrative action is taken by killing getty-link and so removing device lock. Then faxgetty recovers and reclaimes device automatically and faxes can be send and received again.
