Slackware 13.1 Shadow Security Update: Denial Of Service Issue

Here are the details from the Slackware 13.1 ChangeLog: patches/packages/shadow-4.1.4.3-i486-2_slack13.1.txz: Rebuilt. Corrected a packaging error where incorrect permissions on /usr/sbin/lastlog and /usr/sbin/faillog allow any user to set login failure limits on any other user (including root), potentially leading to a denial of service. Thanks to pyllyukko for discovering and reporting this vulnerability. (* Security fix *) Where to find the new package: 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 (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.
