[slackware-security] ruby (SSA:2008-334-01)

New ruby packages are available for Slackware 11.0, 12.0, and 12.1 to
fix bugs and a security issue.

More details about the issue may be found in the Common
Vulnerabilities and Exposures (CVE) database:

http://cve.mitre.org/cgi-bin/cvename.cgi?name=CVE-2008-1447


Here are the details from the Slackware 12.1 ChangeLog:
+--------------------------+
patches/packages/ruby-1.8.6_p287-i486-1_slack12.1.tgz:
Upgraded to ruby-1.8.6-p287.
This fixes several bugs in the previous Ruby update, including a security
issue where the DNS resolver did not randomize the source port and
transaction id sufficiently.
For more information, see:
http://cve.mitre.org/cgi-bin/cvename.cgi?name=CVE-2008-1447
(* Security fix *)
+--------------------------+


Where to find the new packages:
+-----------------------------+

HINT: Getting slow download speeds from ftp.slackware.com?
Give slackware.osuosl.org a try. This is another primary FTP site
for Slackware that can be considerably faster than downloading
directly from ftp.slackware.com.

Thanks to the friendly folks at the OSU Open Source Lab
(http://osuosl.org) for donating additional FTP and rsync hosting
to the Slackware project! :-)

Also see the "Get Slack" section on http://slackware.com for
additional mirror sites near you.
