This means you can do bad things by putting "../" into the \\ name. We now enforce some rules for submodule names which will cause \\ Git to ignore these malicious names (CVE-2018-11235). \\ Credit for finding this vulnerability and the proof of concept from \\ which the test script was adapted goes to Etienne Stalmans. \\ It was possible to trick the code that sanity-checks paths on NTFS \\ into reading random piece of memory (CVE-2018-11233). \\ Credit for fixing for these bugs goes to Jeff King, Johannes \\ Schindelin and others. \\ For more information, see: \\ https://cve.mitre.org/cgi-bin/cvename.cgi?name=CVE-2018-11235 \\ https://cve.mitre.org/cgi-bin/cvename.cgi?name=CVE-2018-11233 \\ (* Security fix *) * [[slackware64.current>d/kernel-headers-4.14.47-x86-1.txz]] * [[slackware64.current>d/rust-1.26.1-x86_64-1.txz]] * [[slackware64.current>k/kernel-source-4.14.47-noarch-1.txz]] * [[slackware64.current>l/fftw-3.3.8-x86_64-1.txz]] * [[slackware64.current>l/imagemagick-6.9.9_48-x86_64-1.txz]] * [[slackware64.current>n/stunnel-5.46-x86_64-1.txz]] * [[slackware64.current>kernels/*]] ==== Rebuilt ==== * [[slackware64.current>a/pkgtools-15.0-noarch-14.txz]] \\ installpkg: rarely, an uncompressed size that's not quite to the next level \\ (e.g., 1020K) will exceed the expected length and cause a --terse line to \\ be one character longer than --terselength. Chop lines to --terselength \\ before outputting them. The trailing ']' might be dropped, but no big deal. * [[slackware64.current>n/network-scripts-15.0-noarch-8.txz]] \\ Allow setting an interface in promiscuous mode; this is needed for networking \\ to function properly in containers \\ Fixup setting of IPALIASES (allow non /32 masks; not only is the /32 mask not \\ required and even undesirable in some cases, this makes ipv6 support easier \\ to integrate (and Darren is working on that as well) \\ Thanks to Darren Austin. * [[slackware64.current>n/ulogd-2.0.7-x86_64-2.txz]] \\ Fixed empty logrotate file. * [[slackware64.current>x/xorg-server-1.20.0-x86_64-2.txz]] \\ Patched to fix nouveau segfault. Thanks to Rod3775 for the patch. * [[slackware64.current>x/xorg-server-xephyr-1.20.0-x86_64-2.txz]] * [[slackware64.current>x/xorg-server-xnest-1.20.0-x86_64-2.txz]] * [[slackware64.current>x/xorg-server-xvfb-1.20.0-x86_64-2.txz]] * [[slackware64.current>xap/network-manager-applet-1.8.12-x86_64-2.txz]] \\ Patched crash bug.
