-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 [slackware-security] mpg123 (SSA:2026-117-01) New mpg123 packages are available for Slackware 15.0 and -current to fix security issues. Here are the details from the Slackware 15.0 ChangeLog: +--------------------------+ patches/packages/mpg123-1.33.5-i586-1.txz: Upgraded. mpg123: Fix generic control mode for largefile-sensitive builds, where 32 bit off_t was used with mpg123 API calls expecting 64 bit off_t. I am appalled that it took a user on 32 bit ARM and a specific https stream to notice this (bug 385, regression since 1.32.0). The security impact of this could be serious, with memory corruption including segfault being observed. mpg123-id3dump, out123: Enable 64 bit offset usage on largefile-sensitive platforms (regression since 1.32.0). (* 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.
