  • a/pkgtools-12.34567890-noarch-6.tgz
    problems with /usr/share/info usage. Thanks to Robby Workman.
  • l/liboil-0.3.16-i486-1.txz
  • n/ntp-4.2.4p7-i486-1.txz
    Stack-based buffer overflow in the cookedprint function in ntpq/ntpq.c in ntpq
    in NTP before 4.2.4p7-RC2 allows arbitrary code execution by a malicious
    remote NTP server.
    Stack-based buffer overflow in the crypto_recv function in ntp_crypto.c in
    ntpd in NTP before 4.2.4p7 allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary code.
    This does not affect the Slackware ntpd as it does not link with openssl.
    For more information, see:
