The remote host is missing an update to the system as announced in the referenced advisory.

Update your system with the appropriate patches or software upgrades. https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=602797 http://www.vuxml.org/freebsd/d754b7d2-b6a7-11df-826c-e464a695cb21.html

The following packages are affected: wget wget-devel CVE-2010-2252 GNU Wget 1.12 and earlier uses a server-provided filename instead of the original URL to determine the destination filename of a download, which allows remote servers to create or overwrite arbitrary files via a 3xx redirect to a URL with a .wgetrc filename followed by a 3xx redirect to a URL with a crafted filename, and possibly execute arbitrary code as a consequence of writing to a dotfile in a home directory.
