news 28 Posted March 29, 2014 -----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 [slackware-security] openssh (SSA:2014-086-06) New openssh packages are available for Slackware 13.0, 13.1, 13.37, 14.0, 14.1, and -current to fix a security issue. Here are the details from the Slackware 14.1 ChangeLog: +--------------------------+ patches/packages/openssh-6.6p1-i486-1_slack14.1.txz: Upgraded. This update fixes a security issue when using environment passing with a sshd_config(5) AcceptEnv pattern with a wildcard. OpenSSH could be tricked into accepting any environment variable that contains the characters before the wildcard character.
