“This week, advisories were released for netscape, xfce,
global, top, tcpdump, usermode, and dump. The vendors include
FreeBSD, RedHat, and Trustix. If you have FreeBSD systems, we
recommend that you update immediately. I am beginning to
wonder if the Linux vendors were caught up in the election. Five of
the seven advisories this week were from FreeBSD. If you have not
been keeping up with advisories, it may be a good idea to go back a
few weeks and make sure your system has been properly patched.
Older advisories can be found at
http://www.linuxsecurity.com/advisories/index.html.”
“Linux Advisory Watch is a comprehensive newsletter that
outlines the security vulnerabilities that have been announced
throughout the week. It includes pointers to updated packages and
descriptions of each vulnerability.”
