Hi

Trustix is, like many other linux distributions, based on Glibc 2.1.3
and is therefore open to the "preload hole" discussed in various
postings to bugtraq and other lists.  This is a local security hole,
and all users of TSL should upgrade their boxes.

MD5sums:
1.2:
d69cb9bf4b4e2054eca741b66bea7efe  glibc-2.1.3-14tr.i586.rpm
89dc092c40a710f50461565ad77cd73b  glibc-devel-2.1.3-14tr.i586.rpm
f28b091857fa5819f89a5196d2cd9677  glibc-profile-2.1.3-14tr.i586.rpm
8bbd1a727271cda776377960fd5a5207  nscd-2.1.3-14tr.i586.rpm

1.1:
b3f6874ccafde9ed366eb0f1f91134eb  glibc-2.1.3-14tr.i586.rpm
3432382c84ec6ec850f8c1867b4a0662  glibc-devel-2.1.3-14tr.i586.rpm

5846041d401e3929cbe09119e22c573f  nscd-2.1.3-14tr.i586.rpm

1.0:
Use the 1.1 packages.

Packages can be downloaded from:
ftp://ftp.trustix.net/pub/Trustix/updates/
http://www.trustix.net/pub/Trustix/updates/

Or from one of our mirrors:
http://www.trustix.net/mirrors.php3

1.2 users who have installed the optional SWUP-package (from
ftp://ftp.trustix.com/pub/Trustix/software/swup/) can use
'swup --upgrade' to automatically download and install the new packages.

For a full update history of the 1.2 release, see:
