happens along. Enjoy! :-)

This update fixes security issues:
Remove SIG(0) support from named as a countermeasure for CVE-2024-1975.
qctx-zversion was not being cleared when it should have been leading to
an assertion failure if it needed to be reused.
An excessively large number of rrtypes per owner can slow down database query
processing, so a limit has been placed on the number of rrtypes that can be
stored per owner (node) in a cache or zone database. This is configured with
the new "max-rrtypes-per-name" option, and defaults to 100.
Excessively large rdatasets can slow down database query processing, so a
limit has been placed on the number of records that can be stored per
rdataset in a cache or zone database. This is configured with the new
"max-records-per-type" option, and defaults to 100.
Malicious DNS client that sends many queries over TCP but never reads
responses can cause server to respond slowly or not respond at all for other
clients.

Patched the implementation of PEAP in wpa_supplicant to prevent an
authentication bypass. For a successful attack, wpa_supplicant must be
configured to not verify the network's TLS certificate during Phase 1
authentication, and an eap_peap_decrypt vulnerability can then be abused
to skip Phase 2 authentication. The attack vector is sending an EAP-TLV
Success packet instead of starting Phase 2. This allows an adversary to
impersonate Enterprise Wi-Fi networks.

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 14.1 x86_64 stable is released!
It's been another interesting release cycle here at Slackware bringing

developers, the dedicated Slackware community, and everyone else who
pitched in to help make this release a reality.

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.
