[slackware-security] dhcpcd (SSA:2014-213-02)

 

New dhcpcd packages are available for Slackware 13.1, 13.37, 14.0, 14.1,

and -current to fix a security issue.

 

 

Here are the details from the Slackware 14.1 ChangeLog:

+--------------------------+

patches/packages/dhcpcd-6.0.5-i486-3_slack14.1.txz: Rebuilt.

This update fixes a security issue where a specially crafted packet

received from a malicious DHCP server causes dhcpcd to enter an infinite

loop causing a denial of service.

Thanks to Tobias Stoeckmann for the bug report.

(* Security fix *)
