Hi folks,

The security patch used in LFS-6.1 fixed an input verification problem in zlib (CAN-2005-2096). However, additional ways that a disrupted stream could cause a buffer overflow and crash an application that uses zlib were found by Markus Oberhumer. It is therefore recommended that zlib be upgraded to 1.2.3 in order to fix the problem.

Regards,

Matt.
