The attacker needs to deliver a long string \\ to the stdin of getln() in tgetpass.c. \\ For more information, see: \\ https://cve.mitre.org/cgi-bin/cvename.cgi?name=CVE-2019-18634 \\ (* Security fix *) {{tag>slackware changelog slackware-14.2 2020-01}} news/2020/01/31/slackware-14.2-changelog.txt Last modified: 13 months agoby Giuseppe Di Terlizzi Log In
