Insight
Upgraded OpenSSH 3.7.1p1 packages are available for Slackware 8.1, 9.0 and -current. These fix additional buffer management errors that were not corrected in the recent 3.7p1 release. The possibility exists that these errors could allow a remote exploit, so we recommend all sites running OpenSSH upgrade to the new OpenSSH package immediately.
