-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 [slackware-security] openvpn (SSA:2018-116-01) New openvpn packages are available for Slackware 13.0, 13.1, 13.37, 14.0, 14.1, 14.2, and -current to fix a security issue. Here are the details from the Slackware 14.2 ChangeLog: +--------------------------+ patches/packages/openvpn-2.4.6-i586-1_slack14.2.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. For more information, see: https://github.com/OpenVPN/openvpn/commit/1394192b210cb3c6624a7419bcf3ff966742e79b https://cve.mitre.org/cgi-bin/cvename.cgi?name=CVE-2018-9336 (* Security fix *) +--------------------------+ Where to find the new packages: +-----------------------------+ Thanks to the friendly folks at the OSU Open Source Lab (http://osuosl.org) for donating FTP and rsync hosting to the Slackware project! :-) Also see the "Get Slack" section on http://slackware.com for additional mirror sites near you.
