patches/packages/dhcp-4.4.3_P1-x86_64-1_slack15.0.txz:  Upgraded.
  This update fixes two security issues:
  Corrected a reference count leak that occurs when the server builds
  responses to leasequery packets.
  Corrected a memory leak that occurs when unpacking a packet that has an
  FQDN option (81) that contains a label with length greater than 63 bytes.
  Thanks to VictorV of Cyber Kunlun Lab for reporting these issues.

dhcp: dhcp (DHCP server and client utilities)
dhcp:
dhcp: This package provides the ISC's DHCP utilities, including both a
dhcp: server and client. The DHCP protocol allows a host to contact a
dhcp: central server which maintains a list of IP addresses which may be
dhcp: assigned on one or more subnets. A DHCP client may request an
dhcp: address from this pool, and then use it temporarily for communication
dhcp: on the network. The DHCP protocol also provides a mechanism whereby
dhcp: a client can learn important details about the network to which it is
dhcp: attached, such as the location of a default router or name server.
