---------------------------------------------------------------------------

We have received a report from the author of epic4 covering a
denial of service vulnerability. All versions of epic4 between
version pre1.034 (including) and version pre2.004-19990718
(excluding) are vulnerable. They contain code which makes epic4
walk off of a string, causing the client to crash and possibly
display arbitrary characters on the terminal.

We recommend you upgrade your epic4 packages immediately.
