+	  <p>
+	    GHOST is a 'buffer overflow' bug affecting the gethostbyname() and
+	    gethostbyname2() function calls in the glibc library. This
+	    vulnerability allows a remote attacker that is able to make an
+	    application call to either of these functions to execute arbitrary
+	    code with the permissions of the user running the application.
+	    The gethostbyname() function calls are used for DNS resolving, which
+	    is a very common event. To exploit this vulnerability, an attacker
+	    must trigger a buffer overflow by supplying an invalid hostname
+	    argument to an application that performs a DNS resolution.</p>
