Its a P1 bug due to a buffer overflow fix. Do you want to do this or do you want me to attempt it? I can/will do it. :-) Also, LIBPCAP really goes with ethereal. The only packages that use it are ethereal and nmap. I'll be glad to do both LIBPCAP and ethereal or you can do them if you want. Again, I will knock both of these out. :-) -- Randy rmlscsi: [GNU ld version 2.15.94.0.2 20041220] [gcc (GCC) 3.4.3] [GNU C Library stable release version 2.3.4] [Linux 2.6.10 i686] 12:24:00 up 119 days, 11:57, 2 users, load average: 0.11, 0.43, 0.57 -- http://linuxfromscratch.org/mailman/listinfo/blfs-dev FAQ: http://www.linuxfromscratch.org/blfs/faq.html Unsubscribe: See the above information page

And still on the subject of security, it appears that fetchmail is now being maintained from http://fetchmail.berlios.de who have a 6.2.5.2 release to address CAN-2005-2335. See e.g. http://www.securityfocus.com/archive/1/406497/30/60/threaded No doubt there are other known vulnerabilities in the book, but in the absence of a list of packages/status I'm *slowly* trying to review them. I'm sorry this doesn't fit nicely with preparation for a release, but that is the nature of vulnerabilities.
