Slackware: 2010-263-01: bzip2 Security Update
Summary
Here are the details from the Slackware 13.1 ChangeLog: patches/packages/bzip2-1.0.6-i486-1_slack13.1.txz: Upgraded. This update fixes an integer overflow that could allow a specially crafted bzip2 archive to cause a crash (denial of service), or execute arbitrary code. For more information, see: http://cve.mitre.org/cgi-bin/cvename.cgi?name=CVE-2010-0405 (* Security fix *)

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
(https://osuosl.org/) for donating additional FTP and rsync hosting
to the Slackware project! :-)
Also see the "Get Slack" section on http://www.slackware.com/ for
additional mirror sites near you.
