Slackware 1129 Published by

The following two security updates are available for Slackware:

dhcpcd (SSA:2014-213-02)
samba (SSA:2014-213-01)



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.

Here are the details from the Slackware 14.1 ChangeLog:
+--------------------------+
patches/packages/samba-4.1.11-i486-1_slack14.1.txz: Upgraded.
This update fixes a remote code execution attack on unauthenticated nmbd
NetBIOS name services. A malicious browser can send packets that may
overwrite the heap of the target nmbd NetBIOS name services daemon.
It may be possible to use this to generate a remote code execution
vulnerability as the superuser (root).
