Tue Jun 19 22:35:25 UTC 2018
patches/packages/gnupg-1.4.23-i486-1_slack13.0.txz: Upgraded.
Sanitize the diagnostic output of the original file name in verbose mode.
By using a made up file name in the message it was possible to fake status
messages. Using this technique it was for example possible to fake the
verification status of a signed mail.
For more information, see:
https://cve.mitre.org/cgi-bin/cvename.cgi?name=CVE-2018-12020
(* Security fix *)
+--------------------------+
Fri Jun 1 21:28:10 UTC 2018
patches/packages/git-2.14.4-i486-1_slack13.0.txz: Upgraded.
This update fixes security issues:
Submodule "names" come from the untrusted .gitmodules file, but we
blindly append them to $GIT_DIR/modules to create our on-disk repo
paths. This means you can do bad things by putting "../" into the
name. We now enforce some rules for submodule names which will cause
Git to ignore these malicious names (CVE-2018-11235).
Credit for finding this vulnerability and the proof of concept from
which the test script was adapted goes to Etienne Stalmans.
It was possible to trick the code that sanity-checks paths on NTFS
into reading random piece of memory (CVE-2018-11233).
Credit for fixing for these bugs goes to Jeff King, Johannes
Schindelin and others.

patches/packages/openvpn-2.4.6-i486-1_slack13.0.txz: Upgraded.
This is a security update fixing a potential double-free() in Interactive
Service. This usually only leads to a process crash (DoS by an unprivileged
local account) but since it could possibly lead to memory corruption if
happening while multiple other threads are active at the same time,
CVE-2018-9336 has been assigned to acknowledge this risk.

patches/packages/libXcursor-1.1.15-i486-1_slack13.0.txz: Upgraded.
Fix heap overflows when parsing malicious files. (CVE-2017-16612)
It is possible to trigger heap overflows due to an integer overflow
while parsing images and a signedness issue while parsing comments.
The integer overflow occurs because the chosen limit 0x10000 for
dimensions is too large for 32 bit systems, because each pixel takes
4 bytes. Properly chosen values allow an overflow which in turn will
lead to less allocated memory than needed for subsequent reads.
The signedness bug is triggered by reading the length of a comment
as unsigned int, but casting it to int when calling the function
XcursorCommentCreate. Turning length into a negative value allows the
check against XCURSOR_COMMENT_MAX_LEN to pass, and the following
addition of sizeof (XcursorComment) + 1 makes it possible to allocate
less memory than needed for subsequent reads.
For more information, see:

(* Security fix *)
patches/packages/libXfont-1.4.7-i486-2_slack13.0.txz: Rebuilt.
Open files with O_NOFOLLOW. (CVE-2017-16611)
A non-privileged X client can instruct X server running under root
to open any file by creating own directory with "fonts.dir",
"fonts.alias" or any font file being a symbolic link to any other
file in the system. X server will then open it. This can be issue
with special files such as /dev/watchdog (which could then reboot
the system).

patches/packages/git-2.14.1-i486-1_slack13.0.txz: Upgraded.
Fixes security issues:
A "ssh://..." URL can result in a "ssh" command line with a hostname that
begins with a dash "-", which would cause the "ssh" command to instead
(mis)treat it as an option. This is now prevented by forbidding such a
hostname (which should not impact any real-world usage).
Similarly, when GIT_PROXY_COMMAND is configured, the command is run with
host and port that are parsed out from "ssh://..." URL; a poorly written
GIT_PROXY_COMMAND could be tricked into treating a string that begins with a
dash "-" as an option. This is now prevented by forbidding such a hostname
and port number (again, which should not impact any real-world usage).

patches/packages/bind-9.9.9_P5-i486-1_slack13.0.txz: Upgraded.
This update fixes a denial-of-service vulnerability. An error in handling
certain queries can cause an assertion failure when a server is using the
nxdomain-redirect feature to cover a zone for which it is also providing
authoritative service. A vulnerable server could be intentionally stopped
by an attacker if it was using a configuration that met the criteria for
the vulnerability and if the attacker could cause it to accept a query
that possessed the required attributes.
Please note: This vulnerability affects the "nxdomain-redirect" feature,
which is one of two methods of handling NXDOMAIN redirection, and is only
available in certain versions of BIND. Redirection using zones of type
"redirect" is not affected by this vulnerability.

patches/packages/libpng-1.2.57-i486-1_slack13.0.txz: Upgraded.
This release fixes an old NULL pointer dereference bug in png_set_text_2()
discovered and patched by Patrick Keshishian. The potential "NULL
dereference" bug has existed in libpng since version 0.71 of June 26, 1995.
To be vulnerable, an application has to load a text chunk into the png
structure, then delete all text, then add another text chunk to the same
png structure, which seems to be an unlikely sequence, but it has happened.

This is primarily a bugfix release, and also addresses security issues.
ssh-agent(1): Will now refuse to load PKCS#11 modules from paths outside
a trusted whitelist.
sshd(8): When privilege separation is disabled, forwarded Unix-domain
sockets would be created by sshd(8) with the privileges of 'root'.
sshd(8): Avoid theoretical leak of host private key material to
privilege-separated child processes via realloc().
sshd(8): The shared memory manager used by pre-authentication compression
support had a bounds checks that could be elided by some optimising
compilers to potentially allow attacks against the privileged monitor.
process from the sandboxed privilege-separation process.
sshd(8): Validate address ranges for AllowUser and DenyUsers directives at
configuration load time and refuse to accept invalid ones. It was
previously possible to specify invalid CIDR address ranges
(e.g. user@127.1.2.3/55) and these would always match, possibly resulting
in granting access where it was not intended.

This update fixes a denial-of-service vulnerability. A defect in BIND's
handling of responses containing a DNAME answer can cause a resolver to exit
after encountering an assertion failure in db.c or resolver.c. A server
encountering either of these error conditions will stop, resulting in denial
of service to clients. The risk to authoritative servers is minimal;
recursive servers are chiefly at risk.

patches/packages/gnupg-1.4.21-i486-1_slack13.0.txz: Upgraded.
Fix critical security bug in the RNG [CVE-2016-6313]. An attacker who
obtains 580 bytes from the standard RNG can trivially predict the next
20 bytes of output. (This is according to the NEWS file included in the
source. According to the annoucement linked below, an attacker who obtains
4640 bits from the RNG can trivially predict the next 160 bits of output.)
Problem detected by Felix Doerre and Vladimir Klebanov, KIT.

patches/packages/wget-1.18-i486-1_slack13.0.txz: Upgraded.
This version fixes a security vulnerability present in all old versions
of wget. On a server redirect from HTTP to a FTP resource, wget would
trust the HTTP server and use the name in the redirected URL as the
destination filename. This behaviour was changed and now it works
similarly as a redirect from HTTP to another HTTP resource so the original
name is used as the destination file. To keep the previous behaviour the
user must provide --trust-server-names.
The vulnerability was discovered by Dawid Golunski and was reported by
Beyond Security's SecuriTeam.

*****************************************************************
* IMPORTANT: READ BELOW ABOUT POTENTIALLY INCOMPATIBLE CHANGES *
*****************************************************************
Rather than backport the fix for the information leak (which is the only
hazardous flaw), we have upgraded to the latest OpenSSH. As of version
7.0, OpenSSH has deprecated some older (and presumably less secure)
algorithms, and also (by default) only allows root login by public-key,
hostbased and GSSAPI authentication. Make sure that your keys and
authentication method will allow you to continue accessing your system
after the upgrade.
The release notes for OpenSSH 7.0 list the following incompatible changes
to be aware of:
* Support for the legacy SSH version 1 protocol is disabled by
default at compile time.
* Support for the 1024-bit diffie-hellman-group1-sha1 key exchange
is disabled by default at run-time. It may be re-enabled using
the instructions at http://www.openssh.com/legacy.html
* Support for ssh-dss, ssh-dss-cert-* host and user keys is disabled
by default at run-time. These may be re-enabled using the
instructions at http://www.openssh.com/legacy.html
* Support for the legacy v00 cert format has been removed.
* The default for the sshd_config(5) PermitRootLogin option has
changed from "yes" to "prohibit-password".
* PermitRootLogin=without-password/prohibit-password now bans all
interactive authentication methods, allowing only public-key,
hostbased and GSSAPI authentication (previously it permitted
keyboard-interactive and password-less authentication if those
were enabled).

patches/packages/bind-9.9.7_P3-i486-1_slack13.0.txz: Upgraded.
This update fixes two denial-of-service vulnerabilities:
+ CVE-2015-5722 is a denial-of-service vector which can be
exploited remotely against a BIND server that is performing
validation on DNSSEC-signed records. Validating recursive
resolvers are at the greatest risk from this defect, but it has not
been ruled out that it could be exploited against an
authoritative-only nameserver under limited conditions. Servers
that are not performing validation are not vulnerable. However,
ISC does not recommend disabling validation as a workaround to
this issue as it exposes the server to other types of attacks.
Upgrading to the patched versions is the recommended solution.
All versions of BIND since 9.0.0 are vulnerable to CVE-2015-5722.
+ CVE-2015-5986 is a denial-of-service vector which can be used
against a BIND server that is performing recursion. Validation
is not required. Recursive resolvers are at the greatest risk
from this defect, but it has not been ruled out that it could
be exploited against an authoritative-only nameserver under
limited conditions.
Only versions of BIND since 9.9.7 and 9.10.2 are vulnerable to
CVE-2015-5986.

patches/packages/bind-9.9.7_P2-i486-1_slack13.0.txz: Upgraded.
This update fixes a security issue where an error in the handling of TKEY
queries can be exploited by an attacker for use as a denial-of-service
vector, as a constructed packet can use the defect to trigger a REQUIRE
assertion failure, causing BIND to exit.
Impact:
Both recursive and authoritative servers are vulnerable to this defect.
Additionally, exposure is not prevented by either ACLs or configuration
options limiting or denying service because the exploitable code occurs
early in the packet handling, before checks enforcing those boundaries.
Operators should take steps to upgrade to a patched version as soon as
possible.

Tue Jul 7 22:59:17 UTC 2015
patches/packages/bind-9.9.7_P1-i486-1_slack13.0.txz: Upgraded.
This update fixes a security issue where an attacker who can cause
a validating resolver to query a zone containing specifically constructed
contents can cause that resolver to fail an assertion and terminate due
to a defect in validation code. This means that a recursive resolver that
is performing DNSSEC validation can be deliberately stopped by an attacker
who can cause the resolver to perform a query against a
maliciously-constructed zone. This will result in a denial of service to
clients who rely on that resolver.

This update fixes a security issue where under specific circumstances an
attacker can send a crafted packet to cause a vulnerable ntpd instance to
crash. Since this requires 1) ntpd set up to allow remote configuration
(not allowed by default), and 2) knowledge of the configuration password,
and 3) access to a computer entrusted to perform remote configuration,
the vulnerability is considered low-risk.

patches/packages/openssl-0.9.8zc-i486-1_slack13.0.txz: Upgraded.
This update fixes several security issues:
SRTP Memory Leak (CVE-2014-3513):
A flaw in the DTLS SRTP extension parsing code allows an attacker, who
sends a carefully crafted handshake message, to cause OpenSSL to fail
to free up to 64k of memory causing a memory leak. This could be
exploited in a Denial Of Service attack.
Session Ticket Memory Leak (CVE-2014-3567):
When an OpenSSL SSL/TLS/DTLS server receives a session ticket the
integrity of that ticket is first verified. In the event of a session
ticket integrity check failing, OpenSSL will fail to free memory
causing a memory leak. By sending a large number of invalid session
tickets an attacker could exploit this issue in a Denial Of Service
attack.
SSL 3.0 Fallback protection:
OpenSSL has added support for TLS_FALLBACK_SCSV to allow applications
to block the ability for a MITM attacker to force a protocol
downgrade.
Some client applications (such as browsers) will reconnect using a
downgraded protocol to work around interoperability bugs in older
servers. This could be exploited by an active man-in-the-middle to
downgrade connections to SSL 3.0 even if both sides of the connection
support higher protocols. SSL 3.0 contains a number of weaknesses
including POODLE (CVE-2014-3566).
Build option no-ssl3 is incomplete (CVE-2014-3568):
When OpenSSL is configured with "no-ssl3" as a build option, servers
could accept and complete a SSL 3.0 handshake, and clients could be
configured to send them.

patches/packages/bash-3.1.020-i486-1_slack13.0.txz: Upgraded.
Another bash update. Here's some information included with the patch:
"This patch changes the encoding bash uses for exported functions to avoid
clashes with shell variables and to avoid depending only on an environment
variable's contents to determine whether or not to interpret it as a shell
function."
After this update, an environment variable will not go through the parser
unless it follows this naming structure: BASH_FUNC_*%%
Most scripts never expected to import functions from environment variables,
so this change (although not backwards compatible) is not likely to break
many existing scripts. It will, however, close off access to the parser as
an attack surface in the vast majority of cases. There's already another
vulnerability similar to CVE-2014-6271 for which there is not yet a fix,
but this hardening patch prevents it (and likely many more similar ones).

patches/packages/ntp-4.2.6p5-i486-1_slack13.0.txz: Upgraded.
All stable versions of NTP remain vulnerable to a remote attack where the
"ntpdc -c monlist" command can be used to amplify network traffic as part
of a denial of service attack. By default, Slackware is not vulnerable
since it includes "noquery" as a default restriction. However, it is
vulnerable if this restriction is removed. To help mitigate this flaw,
"disable monitor" has been added to the default ntp.conf (which will disable
the monlist command even if other queries are allowed), and the default
restrictions have been extended to IPv6 as well.
All users of the NTP daemon should make sure that their ntp.conf contains
"disable monitor" to prevent misuse of the NTP service. The new ntp.conf
file will be installed as /etc/ntp.conf.new with a package upgrade, but the
changes will need to be merged into any existing ntp.conf file by the admin.

For those upgrading from PHP 5.2.x, be aware that quite a bit has
changed, and it will very likely not 'drop in', but PHP 5.2.x is not
supported by php.net any longer, so there wasn't a lot of choice
in the matter. We're not able to support a security fork of
PHP 5.2.x here either, so you'll have to just bite the bullet on
this. You'll be better off in the long run. :)

patches/packages/proftpd-1.3.3d-i486-1_slack13.0.txz: Upgraded.
This update fixes an unbounded copy operation in sql_prepare_where() that
could be exploited to execute arbitrary code. However, this only affects
servers that use the sql_mod module (which Slackware does not ship), and
in addition the ability to exploit this depends on an SQL injection bug
that was already fixed in proftpd-1.3.2rc2 (this according to upstream).
So in theory, this fix should only be of academic interest.
But in practice, better safe than sorry.

need to have enough disk space to handle that.

Hi folks, since the patches for old systems (8.1 - 10.2) were briefly
available containing a /var/lib with incorrect permissions, I'm issuing
these again just to be 100% sure that no systems out there will be left
with problems due to that. This should do it (third time's the charm).

As of version 2.0, SeaMonkey no longer includes a shared libgtkmozembed
library, so the pkgconfig and header files for this have been removed from
the package to avoid confusion over why trying to compile programs that
use it no longer works. There's not really any way to avoid this issue --
it's either upgrade SeaMonkey and lose libgtkmozembed, or keep using version
1.1.18 and miss out on SeaMonkey security updates. If you really need
libgtkmozembed, the seamonkey-1.1.18 packages will be retained in either
/patches or /pasture for Slackware versions 13.0 and earlier.

Don't use unsigned (fix unsigned comparison warning).
Bump patchlevel.
Thanks to Gary Carvell.
Added 2.6.30.5 generic Linux kernel packages in /testing. Release time
is getting close, so we're sticking with the 2.6.29.6 kernels as the main
kernels for Slackware 13.0. Besides, we know of at least one tricky issue
with 2.6.30.x and the LILO bootloader, and the workaround that we know of
likely isn't going to work on BIOSes older than 2001. Be sure to read the
README_FIRST.TXT (really!) in the directory with the kernel packages if you
intend to try these.

xap/pidgin-2.5.9-i486-1.txz: Upgraded.
This update fixes a bug in Pidgin's MSN protocol implementation can allow
a remote attacker to send a malicious MSN message to a Pidgin user, which
will possibly cause arbitrary code to be executed as that user.
This issue was discovered by Federico Muttis of Core Security Technologies.

http://cve.mitre.org/cgi-bin/cvename.cgi?name=CVE-2009-2694
(* Security fix *)
+--------------------------+
Tue Aug 18 18:50:46 CDT 2009
Patched kernels and kernel packages for Linux 2.6.29.6 to address
a bug in proto_ops structures which could allow a user to use the
kernel sendpage operation to execute arbitrary code in page zero.
This could allow local users to gain escalated privileges.
This flaw was discovered by Tavis Ormandy and Julien Tinnes of the
Google Security Team.
For more information, see:
http://cve.mitre.org/cgi-bin/cvename.cgi?name=CVE-2009-2692
In addition, these kernels change the CONFIG_SECURITY_DEFAULT_MMAP_MIN_ADDR
kernel config option value to 4096, which should prevent the execution
of arbitrary code by future NULL dereference bugs that might be found
in the kernel. If you are compiling your own kernel, please check this
option in your .config. If it is set to =0, you may wish to edit it
to 4096 (or some other value > 0) and then reconfigure, or the kernel
will not have default protection against zero page attacks from
userspace.

wasn't a good time to upgrade xfig (3.2.4 also required many patches to

Hi folks! We're going to call this set of updates RC2. There are still
README files to be handled (that's the nature of documentation, I guess), as
well as some other things remaining on the TODO list, but X seems pretty
stable now, and it seems like a release soon would be in order so that we
can march right back into development territory with -current again soon. :-)
Enjoy, and let us know about any problems you run into!

This causes problems with firefox-3.5, and too many people are going to
be confused by that if libsafe remains in /extra. Really, there's very
little reason to be running libsafe on a machine that isn't a server
anyway. In any case, libsafe has always caused a few programs to fail
for as long as I can remember. I'm not sure how much good it still does
either, considering it's been unmaintained upstream since 2001.
Feel free to continue using it if you like, but realize that it has the
potential to break things, especially on desktop machines.

Hi folks -- the TODO isn't entirely empty here, but it's pretty much down
to minor nits, and so we're going to call this release candidate #1 and
(mostly) freeze further updates unless they happen to fix problems.
Regarding the kernel, 2.6.29.x has been well tested with this userspace
and seems like the best choice to ship for production use. Perhaps we
can put something else (at least source and configs) in /testing, though.

d/ruby-1.8.7_p174-i486-1.txz: Upgraded.
This fixes a denial of service issue caused by the BigDecimal method
handling large input values improperly that may allow attackers to
crash the interpreter. The issue affects most Rails applications.
For more information, see:

x/mesa-7.4.1-i486-1.txz: Upgraded.
Well, actually more like "switched", or "reverted". After many hours
trying to track down the reason for reported instability with X and
compositing (such as crashes when adjusting advanced desktop settings in
KDE), we've found that it seems to happen only with MesaLib 7.4.2. Rather
than trying to cherry-pick changes between 7.4.1 and 7.4.2, we've switched
to shipping 7.4.1 in the main tree, and have not run into any such problems
since making the switch. If people want to continue testing 7.4.2, we've
moved it into /testing. Let us know if you run into any problems with
7.4.1 that are fixed with 7.4.2, and we'll take a look at individual diffs.
extra/kde3-compat/k3b3-1.0.5-i486-opt1.txz: Added.
In case the KDE4 version of k3b is not stable, this KDE3 version may be
used along with the KDE3 compatibility packages in extra/kde3-compat/.

Wed Jun 10 13:23:30 CDT 2009
This batch of updates includes a major overhaul of X.Org -- thanks to Robby
Workman for doing a huge amount of work updating the build scripts and testing
everything. A large number of packages were recompiled or upgraded to drop
references to the now-obsolete libxcb-xlib and libXaw8 libraries. We have
workarounds in place for old binaries so it wasn't strictly required, but
recompiling anyway gives a cleaner system. Enjoy!

Fri May 8 18:49:03 CDT 2009
Hello folks! This batch of updates includes the newly released KDE 4.2.3,
but more noticeably it marks the first departure from the use of gzip for
compressing Slackware packages. Instead, we will be using xz, based on
the LZMA compression algorithm. xz offers better compression than even
bzip2, but still offers good extraction performance (about 3 times better
than bzip2 and not much slower than gzip in our testing). Since support
for bzip2 has long been requested, support for bzip2 and the original lzma
format has also been added (why not?), but this is purely in the interest
of completeness -- we think most people will probably want to use either
the original .tgz or the new .txz compression wrappers. The actual
Slackware package format (which consists of the layout within the package
envelope) has not changed, but this is the first support within Slackware's
package tools for using alternate compression algorithms.
Some people have asked why we don't pick a single extension, such as
.slk. While there's certainly a case to be made for that idea, the tools
would still need to support .tgz to handle older packages. Sticking with
".tgz" for everything makes no sense. Using extensions that reflect the
compression format used by the package envelope seems to be the most
transparent approach, and the one that best follows tradition.
As an example of the compression improvement with .txz, have a look
at the kernel-source package:
Before: kernel-source-2.6.29.2_smp-noarch-1.tgz (73808508 bytes)
After: kernel-source-2.6.29.2_smp-noarch-1.txz (49150104 bytes)
The size of the main package tree in /slackware has been reduced from
1.9GB to 1.4GB by converting most packages to .txz.
Most of the packages have been converted from .tgz to .txz, but we
will continue to make the gzip, pkgtools, slackpkg, tar, and xz packages
in .tgz format for the foreseeable future.
Enjoy! And thanks to Lasse Collin for the great work on xz. :-)

a/cups-1.3.10-i486-1.tgz:
Upgraded to cups-1.3.10.
This fixes several security issues, including an integer overflow in the TIFF
decoder, a failure to properly verify the Host HTTP header, and several
problems with PDF handling (the new CUPS uses a wrapper rather than embedded
code taken from xpdf). These issues could result in a denial of service or
the execution of arbitrary code.

a/dialog-1.1_20080819-i486-2.tgz: Patched to make the minimum height of
checkboxes and menuboxes 4. This fixes a bug where installer menus were
taller than they needed to be, and in some cases filled the screen
overwriting the information at the top.
a/pkgtools-12.34567890-noarch-4.tgz: Patched to fix failures when a valid
package extension (.tgz, .tbz, .tlz, .txz) is embedded somewhere in the
directory path, or the package's name, version, or build number.
Thanks to Erik Jan Tromp.
a/sysvinit-scripts-1.2-noarch-29.tgz: Patched rc.M to remove files of the form
{a,}quota.{group,user}.new from the top of filesystems that use quota. These
can be created if quota is interrupted by a reboot or power failure and cause
quotacheck at boot time to fail. Thanks to Erik Jan Tromp.
d/strace-4.5.18-i486-1.tgz: Upgraded to strace-4.5.18.
n/bitchx-1.1-i486-5.tgz: Removed.

modules. Thanks to Piter Punk and Eric Hameleers.
When formatting an ext3 partition, don't use '-j' (using mkfs.ext3 already
takes care of that).
Use the patched dialog to fix the formatting of the installer menus.

ChangeLog bugs in the last update:
eigen was removed, not moved from /testing. This was intentional, as we
are not aware of anything that has not moved to using eigen2 now.
k3b was upgraded to k3b-r936571 in kde/, but does not seem to be stable.
The installers were updated and now support ext4.

x/xdg-utils-1.0.2-noarch-3.tgz:
This update fixes two security issues. First, use of xdg-open in
/etc/mailcap was found to be unsafe -- xdg-open passes along downloaded files
without indicating what mime type they initially presented themselves as,
leaving programs further down the processing chain to discover the file type
again. This makes it rather trivial to present a script (such as a .desktop
file) as a document type (like a PDF) so that it looks safe to click on in a
browser, but will result in the execution of an arbitrary script. It might
be safe to send files to trusted applications in /etc/mailcap, but it does
not seem to be safe to send files to xdg-open in /etc/mailcap.
This package will comment out calls to xdg-open in /etc/mailcap if they are
determined to have been added by a previous version of this package.
If you've made any local customizations to /etc/mailcap, be sure to check
that there are no uncommented calls to xdg-open after installing this update.
Thanks to Manuel Reimer for discovering this issue.
For more information, see:
http://cve.mitre.org/cgi-bin/cvename.cgi?name=CVE-2009-0068
Another bug in xdg-open fails to sanitize input properly allowing the
execution of arbitrary commands. This was fixed in the xdg-utils repository
quite some time ago (prior to the inclusion of xdg-utils in Slackware), but
was never fixed in the official release of xdg-utils. The sources for
xdg-utils in Slackware have now been updated from the repo to fix the problem.

12.2 (and in -current) to increase security had some unintended side effects,
and bluez was one of the things that broke. However, by using the dbus
bluetooth.conf file from bluez-4, this version of bluez can be made to work

Upgraded to KDE 4.2rc1 (4.1.96) in /testing. Thanks very much to Eric Hameleers
for all of the hard work getting this version of KDE ready for /testing so that
Slackware -current will be ready when KDE 4.2 is released! And thanks for all
of his behind-the-scenes work... Eric has been following all of the KDE 4.2
betas as well, and taking note as the build requirements have changed.
This set of packages will also work on Slackware 12.2. If you intend to use
them with Slackware 12.2, grab them now. Library changes in -current may occur
which could make it more difficult to use these KDE packages with Slackware 12.2
in the future.

n/samba-3.2.7-i486-1.tgz:
Upgraded to samba-3.2.7.
This fixes a security issue. From the WHATSNEW.txt file:
"This is a security release in order to address CVE-2009-0022.
o CVE-2009-0022
In Samba 3.2.0 to 3.2.6, in setups with registry shares enabled,
access to the root filesystem ("/") is granted
when connecting to a share called "" (empty string)
using old versions of smbclient (before 3.0.28).

a/mkinitrd-1.3.3-i486-1.tgz:
Fixed a few bugs in the previous mkinitrd package:
If a kernel version is requested with the -k option and modules are needed to
build the initrd, exit with an error if no matching /lib/modules/ tree is
present. Usually an incorrect kernel version was supplied.
Thanks to Eric Hameleers.
When adding kernel modules to the initrd, be more verbose showing success and
failure copying each module. Thanks to Ellington Santos.
With some newer kernels, "/dev/root" might be returned by mount as the root
device, but this will not work as an initrd root device. If mount returns
/dev/root, look at the /dev/root symlink to determine the actual root device
and use that so that the root device does not need to be supplied with -r.
In the call to /sbin/modprobe used to determine module dependencies, use the
option --ignore-install to avoid catching "install" lines under
/etc/modprobe.d/ when modules that use these are added to the initrd. This
prevents /sbin/modprobe from being copied over busybox, breaking the initrd.
Thanks to Ken Milmore.
xap/mozilla-firefox-3.0.5-i686-1.tgz:
Upgraded to firefox-3.0.5.

Slackware 12.2 is released as -stable. Thanks as always to everyone who helped
make this a great point release in the Slackware 12.x series. Without such a
great community surrounding it, Slackware could not possibly be as stable and
reliable as it is. Thanks to the Slackware Crew, the users of LinuxQuestions,
people contributing ideas and patches on IRC and other Slackware forums, the
developers at slackbuilds.org for bringing in new technologies, and everyone
else who shared insights that helped to refine this release over many months.
Happy release day to you all! :-)
Also, ISOs have been sent off to the replicator now to be pressed as a 6 CD
set or a single DVD. The store.slackware.com is taking pre-orders -- if you
like Slackware, please consider supporting the project. We've also added new
black T-shirts with the traditional Slackware logo. Check them out!
Once again, thanks to the entire Slackware community for all the help and
encouragement as Slackware 12.2 progressed to release. Have fun! -P.
+--------------------------+
Mon Dec 8 22:31:55 CST 2008
x/xf86-video-intel-2.4.3-i486-2.tgz: Patched to fix BIOS parsing code and fix
some Intel and i830 video chipsets.
kernels/speakup.s/: Fixed missing filesystem drivers.
isolinux/initrd.img: Added missing mount.nfs.
Added INSSMB, an installer script to use a Samba source.
Thanks to Eric Hameleers.
usb-and-pxe-installers/: Added missing mount.nfs.

n/php-5.2.8-i486-1.tgz: Upgraded to php-5.2.8.
This is a bugfix release that reverts a change that broke magic_quotes_gpc.
+--------------------------+
Sun Dec 7 23:14:42 CST 2008
n/network-scripts-12.2-noarch-4.tgz: Patched rc.inet1 to filter output from
"modprobe -c" that begins with #, preventing spurious error messages.
Thanks to Darrell Anderson.
+--------------------------+
Sun Dec 7 20:51:39 CST 2008
kde/kdeadmin-3.5.10-i486-4.tgz: Updated the knetworkconf patch to handle the
domain name better, and to retain the correct permissions on rc.samba.
Thanks to Niels Horn for the improvements.
l/dbus-1.2.6-i486-1.tgz: Upgraded to dbus-1.2.6.
l/dbus-glib-0.78-i486-1.tgz: Upgraded to dbus-glib-0.78.
l/hal-0.5.11-i486-3.tgz: Modified hal.conf to use the plugdev group correctly.
l/libgphoto2-2.4.3-i486-3.tgz: Added README.jl2005a. Although the driver
for this proprietary chipset is not built by default, the README is
useful to let people know why that is (and perhaps as a warning to steer
clear of these cameras unless you happen to be an expert in reverse
engineering compression formats).
+--------------------------+
Sun Dec 7 01:37:48 CST 2008
a/hdparm-9.3-i486-1.tgz: Upgraded to hdparm-9.3.
ap/man-pages-3.15-noarch-1.tgz: Upgraded to man-pages-3.15.
kde/kdeadmin-3.5.10-i486-3.tgz: Patched knetworkconf (KDE Control Center
Network Settings) to be able to configure network interfaces. Previously,
knetworkconf would say that the system was not supported and refuse to work
since it considered only up to Slackware 10.2 supported. By simply adding
Slackware 11.0, 12.0, 12.1, and 12.2 to the supported version list, this
utility works again. However, it can strip commented out options from the
rc.inet1.conf config file, and can put options into the file in a confusing
order, so it is still not the optimal way to configure a network. Still,
it's better to have this working. Thanks to Niels Horn for writing the
patch, and Darrell Anderson for letting me know about it.
l/libgphoto2-2.4.3-i486-2.tgz: Restore README files for camera libraries that
were not previously included. A pointer to the API documentation has also
been added to the docs directory. Thanks to Theodore Kilgore for pointing
out the usefulness of these documentation files to end users.
n/network-scripts-12.2-noarch-3.tgz: Allow rc.inet1.conf to override MAXNICS
value in rc.inet1. Thanks to Eric Hameleers.
Added rc.inet1.8 and rc.inet1.conf.5 manpages. Thanks to Eric Hameleers.
Removed duplicated code in rc.inet1 default case. Thanks to Collin Baillie.
xap/pidgin-2.5.2-i486-3.tgz: Patched to accept certificates signed with
rsa-md5. Other SSL libraries accept this, so GnuTLS should as well.
extra/wicd/wicd-1.5.6-noarch-2.tgz: Change usr/lib/pm-utils/sleep.d/55wicd to
chmod 644 by default to avoid interference with suspend.
+--------------------------+
Fri Dec 5 20:58:39 CST 2008
ap/ghostscript-8.63-i486-2.tgz: Patched to remove a dependency on the
experimental cairo output driver, which brings in dependencies on many X
libraries. Thanks to Marin Glibic for the bug report and link to the
upstream patch.
ap/gutenprint-5.2.2-i486-3.tgz: Edited setup.06.gutenprint, which still
had the old path to the PPD files. Thanks to Markus Kanet.
ap/pm-utils-1.2.3-i486-1.tgz: Upgraded to pm-utils-1.2.3.
xap/gftp-2.0.19-i486-1.tgz: Upgraded to gftp-2.0.19.
isolinux/initrd.img: Added probe for e1000e and r8169 network chipsets.
usb-and-pxe-installers/: Added probe for e1000e and r8169 network chipsets.
+--------------------------+
Thu Dec 4 23:01:59 CST 2008
ap/slackpkg-2.70.5-noarch-1.tgz: Upgraded to slackpkg-2.70.5-noarch-1.
Thanks to Piter Punk.
l/jre-6u11-i586-1.tgz: Upgraded to Java(TM) 2 Platform Standard Edition
Runtime Environment Version 6.0 update 11.
n/php-5.2.7-i486-1.tgz: Upgraded to php-5.2.7.
In addition to improvements and bug fixes, this new version of PHP also
addresses several security issues, including:
Fixed a crash inside gd with invalid fonts (Fixes CVE-2008-3658).
Fixed a possible overflow inside memnstr (Fixes CVE-2008-3659).
Fixed security issues detailed in CVE-2008-2665 and CVE-2008-2666.
Crash with URI/file..php (filename contains 2 dots). (Fixes CVE-2008-3660).
rfc822.c legacy routine buffer overflow. (Fixes CVE-2008-2829).
Fixed extraction of zip files or directories when the entry name is a
relative path: http://www.sektioneins.de/advisories/SE-2008-06.txt

usb-and-pxe-installers/: Added lsscsi and pciutils.
We're still working on it until the CURRENT.WARNING vanishes...

While there are still some docs that need updating and probably a few more
tweaks and updates here and there, everything is mostly in place for the next
stable release, Slackware 12.2. The versions of major components like X and
the kernel can be considered frozen. Anything major that we haven't done yet
will probably wait for the release after this next one. As Slackware 12.2 is
only a 0.1 version bump, we're trying to focus on making it better without
causing instability or losing compatibility with Slackware 12.1 wherever
possible. Invasive changes like the new X (that will require changes to
xorg.conf) and merging KDE4 should probably wait for Slackware 13.0.
We will call this batch Slackware 12.2 release candidate one. :-)
a/aaa_base-12.2.0-noarch-1.tgz: Bumped /etc/slackware-version version number
in preparation for a stable release, and updated the initial emails.
a/aaa_elflibs-12.2.0-i486-1.tgz: Updated the initial "starter" library package
to the latest versions in -current.
a/genpower-1.0.5-i486-2.tgz: Patched genpowerfail to halt the machine during a
power failure rather than causing it to reboot over and over.
Thanks to Marin Mitov for the bug report.
a/ntfs-3g-1.5130-i486-1.tgz: Upgraded to ntfs-3g-1.5130.
a/pciutils-2.2.10-i486-2.tgz: Updated pci.ids.
a/sysvinit-scripts-1.2-noarch-26.tgz: Patched rc.M to start rc.wicd and
rc.snmpd if those scripts are executable, and removed the reference to the
old rc.hplip script. Also, modifed rc.K to shut down acpid using rc.acpid.
Changed /proc/bus/usb mounting in rc.S to use the options from /etc/fstab if
there is an entry for it there (thanks to Gerardo Exequiel Pozzi).
a/udev-135-i486-1.tgz: Upgraded to udev-135.
a/usbutils-0.73-i486-3.tgz: Updated usb.ids.
ap/alsa-utils-1.0.17-i486-2.tgz: Patched rc.alsa to use [[:blank:]] instead of
[[:space:]] with tr, since the latter removes vertical whitespace and causes
everything to be incorrectly listed on one line.
Thanks to Ondrej Kubecka for the patch.
l/hal-info-20081127-noarch-1.tgz: Upgraded to hal-info-20081127.
n/ethtool-6-i486-1.tgz: Upgraded to ethtool-6. Evidently this has been out
for some time -- thanks to Jan Rafaj for the notice.
n/network-scripts-12.2-noarch-1.tgz: Removed the automatic DHCP timeout
reduction in rc.inet1, since the kernel is not reliably returning correct
information about that. If the default 30 second timeout is too long, it
can be shortened in rc.inet1.conf.
Patched rc.ip_forward to reapply any non-default ipv4 parameters after
turning ipv4 forwarding on or off, as doing that clears them. Thanks to Mark.
tcl/expect-5.44.1.11-i486-2.tgz: Recompiled.
tcl/tcl-8.5.5-i486-1.tgz: Upgraded to tcl-8.5.5.

xap/audacious-1.5.1-i486-2.tgz: Recompiled to make sure newer libraries will
work as expected.

extra/inn/inn-2.4.5-i486-1.tgz: Upgraded to inn-2.4.5.
extra/wicd/wicd-1.5.5-noarch-1.tgz: Added wicd-1.5.5. Thanks to Robby Workman.
isolinux/initrd.img: Rebuilt removing some unneeded kernel modules.
Thanks to Stuart Winter and Eric Hameleers.
usb-and-pxe-installers/: Rebuilt removing some unneeded kernel modules.
+--------------------------+
Mon Dec 1 01:21:52 CST 2008
ap/gutenprint-5.2.2-i486-2.tgz: Fixed PPD generation in install script.
Thanks to Willy Sudiarto Raharjo.
+--------------------------+
Sun Nov 30 22:15:32 CST 2008
a/sysvinit-scripts-1.2-noarch-25.tgz: Edited rc.S to clear temporary files
better. Edited rc.M, rc.6, and rc.K to not output additional information
when running accton, as the new binary already does that.
a/udev-134-i486-1.tgz: Upgraded to udev-134. Thanks to Piter Punk.
(Remove any obsolete /etc/modprobe.d/uhci-hci config file after upgrade)
ap/gutenprint-5.2.2-i486-1.tgz: Upgraded to gutenprint-5.2.2.
ap/libx86-1.1-i486-1.tgz: Added libx86-1.1.
ap/man-pages-3.14-noarch-1.tgz: Upgraded to man-pages-3.14.
ap/pm-utils-1.2.2.1-i486-2.tgz: Rebuilt with a patch to properly reset acpi
video flags after a resume.
ap/radeontool-1.5-i486-1.tgz: Added radeontool-1.5.
ap/vbetool-1.1-i486-1.tgz: Added vbetool-1.1.
l/jre-6u10-i586-2.tgz: Added /usr/bin/java/jre/bin directory since the profile
scripts add it to the $PATH. Thanks to Phillip Warner.
n/wireless-tools-29-i486-4.tgz: Patched rc.wireless to take the interface
down and retry if setting the mode fails. Thanks to Guan Xin.
+--------------------------+
Sat Nov 29 14:21:53 CST 2008
a/lilo-22.8-i486-14.tgz: Fixed typo in liloconfig.
a/udev-130-i486-2.tgz: Rebuilt including a new /etc/modprobe.d/uhci-hci to
make sure that the ehci-hcd module is always loaded before uhci-hci.
ap/lsscsi-0.21-i486-1.tgz: Upgraded to lsscsi-0.21.
Thanks to Darrell Anderson for pointing me to the new URL.
ap/mc-4.6.1_20070623p14-i486-2.tgz: Patched to fix a bug where moving or
copying a file could cause mc to crash. Thanks to David Somero for the patch.
d/ruby-1.8.7_p72-i486-2.tgz: Recompiled with a patch to fix short name
constants. Thanks to Marco Bonetti for pointing out the problem.
n/bridge-utils-1.2-i486-2.tgz: Patched to fix a corner case where brctl does
not work if the name of the bridge is "bridge".
xap/audacious-plugins-1.5.1-i486-4.tgz: Patched to fix amidi-plug plugin.
Thanks to Giacomo Lozito.
+--------------------------+

l/libgsf-1.14.10-i486-1.tgz: Upgraded to libgsf-1.14.10.
n/dnsmasq-2.46-i486-1.tgz: Upgraded to dnsmasq-2.46.
n/ntp-4.2.4p5-i486-2.tgz: Edited rc.ntpd to add status support for pm-utils.
Thanks to Robby Workman.
n/samba-3.2.5-i486-1.tgz: Upgraded to samba-3.2.5.
This package fixes an important barrier against rogue clients reading from
uninitialized memory (though no proof-of-concept is known to exist).

a/acpid-1.0.8-i486-2.tgz: Fixed a bug in the build script so that
/etc/acpi/acpi_handler.sh.new is chmoded executable. If you installed the
previous package, you should chmod 755 your /etc/acpi/acpi_handler.sh.
Thanks to Stuart Winter for pointing this out.
+--------------------------+
Wed Nov 19 19:52:15 CST 2008
a/acpid-1.0.8-i486-1.tgz: Upgraded to acpid-1.0.8.
/etc/acpi/acpi_handler.sh will be installed as a .new with future upgrades,
but since whatever version already installed on the system owns
/etc/acpi/acpi_handler.sh, it will still be overwritten one more time when
this update is installed. If you've customized your script, be sure to back
it up before upgrading.
a/mkinitrd-1.3.2-i486-4.tgz: Fixed a bug where unless -F was the first option
given, other command line options would not override the contents of
/etc/mkinitrd.conf as documented in the man page.
Thanks to David Somero for the patch.
l/libxml2-2.6.32-i486-2.tgz: Patched and recompiled.
This fixes vulnerabilities including denial of service, or possibly the
execution of arbitrary code as the user running a libxml2 linked application
if untrusted XML content is parsed.

NOTE: These are some of the more important updates for X.Org. For the last
several days we have been building and testing the very newest X updates, and
it seems that the more intrusive updates are probably best left to develop
until sometime after the coming -stable Slackware 12.2 release. Those will
require a lot of testing and some things don't seem to be quite there yet.
"X -configure" is hanging the console, DRI is not yet working on all the
hardware tested, and the new xorg-server will render most existing xorg.conf
files non-functional until several changes are made.
extra/slacktrack/slacktrack-2.01-noarch-1.tgz: Upgraded to slacktrack-2.01.

one self-signed certificate. This update fixes the issue.
n/net-snmp-5.4.2.1-i486-1.tgz: Upgraded to net-snmp-5.4.2.1.
This fixes a problem where a user with read access could cause snmpd to

n/bluez-libs-3.36-i486-2.tgz: Switched back to the BlueZ 3.x series. As the
website says, "without support from the userspace these modules are useless."
Well, it seems as if the userspace support for BlueZ 3.x is still much better
than the support for 4.x, so we'll move back to these packages (recompiled)
until the situation changes. Thanks to Tom Nardi for the detailed report
concerning the usability of BlueZ 3.x versus BlueZ 4.x.
n/bluez-utils-3.36-i486-4.tgz: Switched back to bluez-utils-3.36, with the
udev rules moved into /lib/udev/rules.d/.

From the gnutls-2.6.1 NEWS file:
** libgnutls: Fix X.509 certificate chain validation error.
[GNUTLS-SA-2008-3] The flaw makes it possible for man in the middle
attackers (i.e., active attackers) to assume any name and trick GNU TLS
clients into trusting that name. Thanks for report and analysis from

a/cups-1.3.9-i486-1.tgz: Upgraded to cups-1.3.9.
This update fixes three vulnerabilities in the SGI image format filter, the
texttops filter, and the HP-GL and HP-GL/2 plotter format filter. All three
of these could result in a denial of service, and the plotter filter issue
could possibly be used to execute code as the print spooler user.

Note that some drives that were previously seen as /dev/hd? might now show up
as /dev/sd?, so be prepared for that possibility. This should only happen on
machines that could have used libata with hd?=noprobe, but did not. The
CONFIG_PATA_LEGACY (libata, /dev/sd?) is the default now for PATA controllers
that require a generic driver.

Thanks to Robby Workman, Piter Punk, Eric Hameleers, and Stuart Winter for

need to happen in other packages, and other updates to consider as well. Now
that we have a new kernel (with the TCP options ordering problem fixed), I hope
there will be time soon to look at those things.

a/glibc-zoneinfo-2.7-noarch-13.tgz: Rebuilt using tzdata2008g. Of course
there were problems with tzdata2008f, and tzdata2008g was released today.
I'm not sure why this happens right after timezones get updated here. ;-)
l/glibc-2.7-i486-13.tgz: Recompiled using tzcode2008g and tzdata2008g.

Sun Sep 21 11:39:12 CDT 2008
xap/imagemagick-6.4.3_6-i486-2.tgz: Recompiled using the --without-modules
option, which seems to work around the issue with processing ps and eps

l/gnome-icon-theme-2.23.92-noarch-2.tgz: The previous package was missing 3354
symlinks to alternate icon names. Thanks to Tom Nardi for letting me know
about the new --enable-icon-mapping option.

xap/imagemagick-6.4.3_6-i486-1.tgz: Upgraded to ImageMagick-6.4.3-6.
This, like the previous package, fails when "convert foo.eps foo.png" is
tried. It's not a Slackware problem (I see it elsewhere when searching),
but the imagemagick package from 12.1 works... unless it is recompiled.
Any hints welcome.

ap/vim-7.2.018-i486-1.tgz: Upgraded to vim-7.2.018.
n/bluez-utils-3.36-i486-2.tgz: It seems --enable-all is no longer a valid
./configure option for this package, and everything needs to be enabled
individually, so several utilities and config files were missing from the
previous package. Thanks to Tom Nardi for the help with this.

Thanks to Patryk Krawaczynski, Keith Richie, and Catalin Tomozei for all

+--------------------------+
Thu Sep 11 16:02:24 CDT 2008
xap/xmms-1.2.11-i486-1.tgz: Added xmms-1.2.11. This is an audio player that
is similar to audacious, but uses about a third of the CPU power.
Please note that "doublesize" mode seems broken -- if it is enabled, XMMS
will crash, and then will not start again until $HOME/.xmms is cleared out.
Any patch for this issue would be appreciated.

A few updates... more to come.
a/glibc-solibs-2.7-i486-11.tgz: Recompiled against Linux 2.6.24.7.
a/glibc-zoneinfo-2.7-noarch-11.tgz: Rebuild from tzcode/tzdata2008e.
a/kernel-generic-2.6.24.7-i486-1.tgz: Upgraded to Linux 2.6.24.7.
We are bumping the kernel within the 2.6.24.x series for now rather than
leaping for 2.6.26.x immediately for sereral reasons. First, we know that
it works within the existing framework, and the config files did not need
major changes (only CONFIG_SECURITY_FILE_CAPABILITIES was changed to =y for
libcap support). Also, we know that the kernel headers are usable for
compiling glibc, KDE, and several other important packages. Finally, we
had to recompile the kernel anyway due to the GCC bump, and would rather not
rush into 2.6.26.x. Finding the optimal .config files will not be trivial,
speakup will need to be reevaluated, and so forth. But don't panic -- the
goal is 2.6.26.x (or newer, if it proves stable). Testing here and
throughout the Slackware community continues with the latest kernels, and so
far things are looking good. This is an interim kernel to make sure that
video drivers, console UTF8, and other things don't suddenly begin to act
strangely...
a/kernel-generic-smp-2.6.24.7_smp-i686-1.tgz: Upgraded to Linux 2.6.24.7.
a/kernel-huge-2.6.24.7-i486-1.tgz: Upgraded to Linux 2.6.24.7.
a/kernel-huge-smp-2.6.24.7_smp-i686-1.tgz: Upgraded to Linux 2.6.24.7.
a/kernel-modules-2.6.24.7-i486-1.tgz: Upgraded to Linux 2.6.24.7.
a/kernel-modules-smp-2.6.24.7_smp-i686-1.tgz: Upgraded to Linux 2.6.24.7.
a/less-418-i486-1.tgz: Upgraded to less-418.
a/ntfs-3g-1.2812-i486-1.tgz: Upgraded to ntfs-3g-1.2812.
a/util-linux-ng-2.14.1-i486-1.tgz: Upgraded to util-linux-ng-2.14.1.
ap/flac-1.2.1-i486-2.tgz: Recompiled to bring back the XMMS plugin.
ap/gphoto2-2.4.2-i486-1.tgz: Added gphoto2-2.4.2.

man-pages-posix-2003-a. Thanks to Robby Workman for the help.
ap/mc-4.6.1_20070623p14-i486-1.tgz: Upgraded to mc-4.6.1_20070623p14.
Patched to improve UTF8 support (thanks to Vit Rosin).
ap/sqlite-3.6.2-i486-1.tgz: Added sqlite-3.6.2.
d/cmake-2.6.1-i486-1.tgz: Upgraded to cmake-2.6.1.
d/cvs-1.11.23-i486-1.tgz: Upgraded to cvs-1.11.23.
d/doxygen-1.5.6-i486-1.tgz: Upgraded to doxygen-1.5.6.
d/gcc-4.2.4-i486-1.tgz: Upgraded to gcc-4.2.4.
This an upgrade to a known stable GCC. The gcc-4.3.x branch is much more
strict about source correctness, and many upstream sources would need to be
patched in order to compile with it. Therefore, this is the logical next
compiler to use until those issues are worked out upstream. Adding gcc-4.3.x
at this time would be, IMHO, an annoyance for many people compiling their own
sources or packages.
d/gcc-g++-4.2.4-i486-1.tgz: Upgraded to gcc-4.2.4.

Tue Sep 2 02:11:27 CDT 2008
n/samba-3.2.3-i486-1.tgz: Upgraded to samba-3.2.3. This fixes a security
issue where group_mapping.ldb was accidentally chmod 666 (only in -current,
as all previous Slackware versions use the Samba 3.0.x branch which is not
affected). This build also adds the mount.smbfs wrapper script for
mount.cifs, and a link to the wrapper from /usr/bin/smbmount. This may
fix some of the issues that people were having mounting SMB filesystems.
Note that SMBFS is considered obsolete now, and using mount.smbfs really
isn't any different in function using the wrapper than using mount.cifs
directly. For more information on the security issue, see:
http://cve.mitre.org/cgi-bin/cvename.cgi?name=CVE-2008-3789
(* Security fix *)
Since this security issue only affects the unreleased development branch,
(aka -current) this ChangeLog comment is the official notification.
For those using older versions of Slackware, many of them got bugfix
updates to the 3.0.x branch. Check the new packages out -- they should
correct some stability issues.

kde/koffice-1.6.3-i486-6.tgz: Patched KOffice to write ODT elements in the

Venturi while moving ODT documents between OOo and KWord. Thanks to
Giovanni Venturi for pointing out the patch in KOffice's SVN.
+--------------------------+
Wed Aug 27 21:01:25 CDT 2008
A couple of things slipped through the cracks with that last update. An old
patch was applied to kdenetwork making that build fail. Once that was fixed
kdetoys (previously missing) built correctly. Perhaps it needed a header file
or library from kdenetwork. Sorry about that, and thanks to
Willy Sudiarto Raharjo and Corrado Franco for pointing out the omissions.
kde/kdenetwork-3.5.10-i486-1.tgz: Upgraded to kdenetwork-3.5.10.

Upgraded KDE version 3.x.x to 3.5.10. Really, there's nothing wrong with
looking back as long as it's something stable and dependable. It's good to
see that KDE3 received this maintainance update. Thanks, KDE team! :-)

Thanks to Robby Workman and Heinz Wiesinger for all the packaging and testing
help, and of course to the whole KDE community for helping to bring the Linux
desktop to a whole new level of appearance and ease of use. I've installed
this on my main email/browsing/general machine and as far as I'm concerned
there's just no looking back. It's really a big step forward.

a/sysvinit-scripts-1.2-noarch-22.tgz: _Really_ quieted down rc.M's mime update
this time (it seems that errors are sent to stdout). Thanks to Robby Workman.
If we must update icon-cache files in rc.M (which is done only if they already
exist), background it so that it doesn't delay the boot as much.
In rc.S, only update the kernel version in /etc/motd if the file begins with
"Linux", leaving the rest of the file free to be customized.
Thanks to Pete Cervasio for the improved MOTD script.
Grab some information about the root partition from /proc/mounts to
initialize /etc/mtab. Thanks to Alan Hicks.

(* Security fix *)
n/mtr-0.73-i486-1.tgz:
Upgraded to mtr-0.73.
This fixes a minor security bug where a very long hostname in the trace path
could lead to an overflow (and most likely just a crash).
(* Security fix *)
n/net-snmp-5.4.1.2-i486-1.tgz:
Upgraded to net-snmp-5.4.1.2.
A vulnerability was discovered where an attacked could spoof an authenticated
SNMPv3 packet due to incorrect HMAC checking. Also, a buffer overflow was
found that could be exploited if an application using the net-snmp perl
modules connects to a malicious server.

n/openldap-client-2.3.43-i486-1.tgz: Upgraded to openldap-2.3.43.
This release fixes a security issue in slapd (our package does not ship it.)
n/openssh-5.1p1-i486-1.tgz:
Upgraded to openssh-5.1p1.
When upgrading OpenSSH, it is VERY IMPORTANT to also upgrade OpenSSL, or
it is possible to be unable to log back into sshd!
n/openssl-0.9.8h-i486-1.tgz:
Upgraded to OpenSSL 0.9.8h.
The Codenomicon TLS test suite uncovered security bugs in OpenSSL.
If OpenSSL was compiled using non-default options (Slackware's package
is not), then a malicious packet could cause a crash. Also, a malformed
TLS handshake could also lead to a crash.

n/dnsmasq-2.45-i486-1.tgz:
Upgraded to dnsmasq-2.45.
It was discovered that earlier versions of dnsmasq have DNS cache
weaknesses that are similar to the ones recently discovered in BIND.
This new release minimizes the risk of cache poisoning.
For more information, see:
http://cve.mitre.org/cgi-bin/cvename.cgi?name=CVE-2008-1447
(* Security fix *)
testing/packages/jdk-6u10_beta-i586-1.tgz: Added Java(TM) 2 Platform Standard
Edition Runtime Environment Version 6.0 update 10 beta. Evidently the
version 6.0 update 7 (stable) packages did not fix the CUPS printing issue,
but these beta packages should (but remember, they are BETA releases).
testing/packages/jre-6u10_beta-i586-1.tgz: Added Java(TM) 2 Platform Standard
Edition Development Kit Version 6.0 update 10 beta.
Both of these Java(TM) packages are suitable for use on Slackware 12.1 and
probably on earlier releases as well.
+--------------------------+
Mon Jul 21 11:15:47 CDT 2008
xap/mozilla-firefox-3.0.1-i686-1.tgz:
Upgraded to Firefox 3.0.1.
This fixes some security issues:
For more information, see:
http://www.mozilla.org/security/known-vulnerabilities/firefox30.html
Also, thanks to Phillip Warner for providing a configuration fix to allow
mailto: links to open in Thunderbird (or other mailers). To use this, you
may need to copy /usr/lib/firefox-3.0.1/defaults/profile/mimeTypes.rdf over
your own mimeTypes.rdf under $HOME/.mozilla/firefox/{something}.default,
or merge in the changes to your own mimeTypes.rdf.

l/jre-6u7-i586-1.tgz: Switched to Java(TM) 2 Platform Standard Edition Runtime
Environment Version 6.0 update 7. This non-beta stable release should fix
the printing issues with CUPS in the previous stable Java(TM) release.
extra/jdk-6/jdk-6u7-i586-1.tgz: Switched to Java(TM) 2 Platform Standard
Edition Development Kit Version 6.0 update 7.

a/ntfs-3g-1.2712-i486-1.tgz: Upgraded to ntfs-3g-1.2712.
This has been compiled to use the internal FUSE library rather than the
system FUSE library. The benefit of this is that if /bin/ntfs-3g is make
setuid root, then non-root users can use it to mount NTFS partitions if
/etc/fstab allows it. Also, this version of ntfs-3g would require the CVS
version of external FUSE, so that helped make this an easy choice.
a/util-linux-ng-2.14-i486-1.tgz: Upgraded to util-linux-ng-2.14.
x/mesa-7.0.3-i486-1.tgz: Upgraded to mesa-7.0.3.
We've had a few reports that this new mesa version fixes some instability
issues people were having with mesa-7.0.2. While it's not usually a good
idea to run -current packages on older Slackware versions, this mesa package
should be fully compatible with a patched-up Slackware 12.1 box. If mesa is
causing issues for you, it might be worth a try. At worst you'd have to go
back to the older package.
When we make changes to the libraries or toolchain that would make -current
break compatibility with Slackware 12.1, we will try to make note of it here.
However, we don't always know what side effects or regressions an update may
cause, but will do the best we can to offer a heads-up where possible.
xap/seamonkey-1.1.11-i486-1.tgz:
Upgraded to Seamonkey 1.1.11.
This release fixes some more security vulnerabilities.

x/xf86-video-mach64-6.8.0-i486-1.tgz: Added xf86-video-mach64-6.8.0.
This can be used alone with driver type "mach64" in xorg.conf, or with type
"ati" using both this package and the ati driver package as a wrapper.

n/bind-9.4.2_P1-i486-1.tgz:
Upgraded to bind-9.4.2-P1.
This upgrade addresses a security flaw known as the CERT VU#800113 DNS Cache
Poisoning Issue. This is the summary of the problem from the BIND site:
"A weakness in the DNS protocol may enable the poisoning of caching
recurive resolvers with spoofed data. DNSSEC is the only full solution.
New versions of BIND provide increased resilience to the attack."
It is suggested that sites that run BIND upgrade to one of the new packages
in order to reduce their exposure to DNS cache poisoning attacks.

This updated package fixes bugs which can lead to a denial of service
(DoS) in programs linked with GnuTLS. Thanks to Ossi Herrala and
Jukka Taimisto from the CROSS project at Codenomicon Ltd. for finding

slackware/l/jre-6u10_beta-i586-1.tgz: Upgraded to Java(TM) 2 Platform Standard
Edition Runtime Environment Version 6.0 update 10 beta. This is a BETA
VERSION and may contain problems, but it may also fix an issue with CUPS
printing. If this fix is important to you, it may be worth giving this
package a try at your own risk. For now, -current seems like the only prudent
place for this package. Hopefully we will see official 6u10 releases soon.

of RAID+LUKS+LVM works. Thanks to Eric Hameleers.
xap/rdesktop-1.6.0-i486-1.tgz: Upgraded to rdesktop-1.6.0.
According to the rdesktop ChangeLog, this contains a:
"* Fix for potential vulnerability against compromised/malicious servers
(reported by iDefense)"
This package build also includes the new alsa driver (--with-sound=alsa),
though I couldn't get local sound redirection. Perhaps it was just my
command line error though, so the driver remains included for testing.

Slackware 12.1 is released as -stable. :-) Again, huge thanks to everybody
who pitched in and helped with bug reports, patches, testing, suggestions,
other comments, and everything else. Without this valuable input, Slackware
would be nowhere near what it is today. Special thanks to the CREW, to the
people developing and testing for slackbuilds.org (where many of Slackware's
future additions are first built and tested), and to everyone on
linuxquestions.org, various #slackware or ##slackware IRC channels, other
Slackware related web sites, and other places where the community shares their
needs and concerns with the team. On behalf of everyone here, thanks.
We think you'll enjoy this new release, and hope that you'll find it to be
much more than 0.1 better than Slackware 12.0. ;-)
Have fun! -P.
