  • patches/packages/elm-2.5.8-i486-1.tgz
    This fixes a buffer overflow in the parsing of the Expires header that
    could be used to execute arbitrary code as the user running Elm.
    Thanks to Ulf Harnhammar for finding the bug and reminding me to get
    out updated packages to address the issue.
