3 Security Updates for Slackware

Posted by Philipp Esselbach on: 09/15/2010 10:04 AM [ Print | 0 comment(s) ]

3 new security updates has been released for Slackware Linux:

- sudo (SSA:2010-257-02)
- samba (SSA:2010-257-01)
- sudo redo (SSA:2010-258-03)




[slackware-security] sudo (SSA:2010-257-02)
New sudo packages are available for Slackware 8.1, 9.0, 9.1, 10.0, 10.1, 10.2,
11.0, 12.0, 12.1, 12.2, 13.0, 13.1, and -current to fix a security issue.


Here are the details from the Slackware 13.1 ChangeLog:
+--------------------------+
patches/packages/sudo-1.7.4p4-i486-1_slack13.1.txz: Upgraded.
This fixes a flaw that could lead to privilege escalation.
For more information, see:

HINT: Getting slow download speeds from ftp.slackware.com?
Give slackware.osuosl.org a try. This is another primary FTP site
for Slackware that can be considerably faster than downloading
directly from ftp.slackware.com.

Thanks to the friendly folks at the OSU Open Source Lab
(http://osuosl.org) for donating additional FTP and rsync hosting
to the Slackware project! :-)

Also see the "Get Slack" section on Link for
additional mirror sites near you.
