    [slackware-security] OpenSSH updated again (SSA:2003-260-01)

    Upgraded OpenSSH 3.7.1p1 packages are available for Slackware
    8.1, 9.0 and -current. These fix additional buffer management
    errors that were not corrected in the recent 3.7p1 release.
    The possibility exists that these errors could allow a remote
    exploit, so we recommend all sites running OpenSSH upgrade to
    the new OpenSSH package immediately.

    Here are the details from the Slackware 9.0 ChangeLog:
    +--------------------------+
    Wed Sep 17 01:25:22 PDT 2003
    patches/packages/openssh-3.7.1p1-i386-1.tgz: Upgraded to openssh-3.7.1p1.
      The OpenSSH advisory was updated (http://www.openssh.com/txt/buffer.adv)
      and now says that you need at least version 3.7.1, which fixes some
      more buffer problems like those fixed by 3.7.
      (* Security fix *)
