Slackware 12.0: SSA:2007-440-01 Urgent Firefox Security Update
slackware
July 24, 2007
New SeaMonkey packages are available for Slackware 11.0 and 12.0 to fix possible security issues
Summary
Here are the details from the Slackware 12.0 ChangeLog: patches/packages/seamonkey-1.1.3-i486-1_slack12.tgz: Upgraded to seamonkey-1.1.3. This is presumably a security update, but the details on the net have been sparse. So far nothing has appeared at the usual URL, but I would treat this as a security update unless it is announced as otherwise. For more information (if/when it appears), see: https://www.mozilla.org/en-US/security/known-vulnerabilities/ (* Security fix *)

Where Find 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
from ftp.slackware.com.
Thanks to the friendly folks at the OSU Open Source Lab
(https://osuosl.org/) for donating additional FTP and rsync hosting
to the Slackware project! :-)
Also see the "Get Slack" section on http://www.slackware.com/ for
additional mirror sites near you.
