Description of problem:
Hi People, I was researching the freeradius implementation, 
particulary de redhat rpm wich comes with RedHat Enterprise Linux 3, 
doing this I saw this on freeradius main site...

20 November, 2003 Version 0.9.3 has been released. This version 
corrects a flaw in 0.9.2 (and all earlier versions of the server) 
which may allow an attacker to DoS the server. 
The bug does not look to be easily exploitable, as it overwrites the 
heap (not the stack), and any exploit code must be in the form of a 
valid RADIUS packet. 
We strongly recommend that all users of FreeRADIUS upgrade to 0.9.3.

I was wondering if the  freeradius-0.9.0-2 have this security 
problem, maybe yes or not, but could be...
