New dhcp packages are available for Slackware 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/dhcp-4.1_ESV_R2-i486-1_slack13.1.txz: Upgraded.
In dhclient, check the data for some string options for reasonableness
before passing it along to the script that interfaces with the OS.
This prevents some possible attacks by a hostile DHCP server.

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 http://slackware.com for
additional mirror sites near you.
