This update fixes a security issue:
The iconv() function in the GNU C Library versions 2.39 and older may
overflow the output buffer passed to it by up to 4 bytes when converting
strings to the ISO-2022-CN-EXT character set, which may be used to crash
an application or overwrite a neighbouring variable.

The sudoers plugin has been modified to make it more resilient to ROWHAMMER
attacks on authentication and policy matching.
The sudoers plugin now constructs the user time stamp file path name using
the user-ID instead of the user name. This avoids a potential problem with
user names that contain a path separator ('/') being interpreted as part of
the path name.

Don't go automatically chowning files in /var/named, since some users may
have special requirements. But in case anyone finds that behavior useful,
you may set NAMED_CHOWN=YES in /etc/default/named to turn it back on.
Unless anyone has a good objection to it, this change is considered pending
for the next BIND upgrades in -stable.
Thanks to Mig21.

Slackware 14.2 x86_64 stable is released!
The long development cycle (the Linux community has lately been living in
"interesting times", as they say) is finally behind us, and we're proud to
announce the release of Slackware 14.2. The new release brings many updates
and modern tools, has switched from udev to eudev (no systemd), and adds
well over a hundred new packages to the system. Thanks to the team, the
upstream developers, the dedicated Slackware community, and everyone else
who pitched in to help make this release a reality.
The ISOs are off to be replicated, a 6 CD-ROM 32-bit set and a dual-sided
32-bit/64-bit x86/x86_64 DVD. Please consider supporting the Slackware
project by picking up a copy from store.slackware.com. We're taking
pre-orders now, and offer a discount if you sign up for a subscription.
Have fun! :-)

Slackware 14.0 x86_64 stable is released!
We're perfectionists here at Slackware, so this release has been a long
time a-brewing. But we think you'll agree that it was worth the wait.
Slackware 14.0 combines modern components, ease of use, and flexible
configuration... our "KISS" philosophy demands it.
The ISOs are off to be replicated, a 6 CD-ROM 32-bit set and a

Thanks to everyone who helped make this happen. The Slackware team, the
upstream developers, and (of course) the awesome Slackware user
community.
Have fun! :-)
