Slackware 1087 Published by

The following updates has been released for Slackware Linux:

bind (SSA:2015-188-04)
cups (SSA:2015-188-01)
mozilla-firefox (SSA:2015-188-02)
ntp (SSA:2015-188-03)



bind (SSA:2015-188-04)


New bind packages are available for Slackware 13.0, 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/bind-9.9.7_P1-i486-1_slack14.1.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.

New ntp packages are available for Slackware 13.0, 13.1, 13.37, 14.0, 14.1,

Here are the details from the Slackware 14.1 ChangeLog:
+--------------------------+
patches/packages/ntp-4.2.8p3-i486-1_slack14.1.txz: Upgraded.
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.
