[slackware-security]  kdebase-workspace (SSA:2010-110-02)

New kdebase-workspace packages are available for Slackware 13.0 and -current to
fix a security issue with KDM.


Here are the details from the Slackware 13.0 ChangeLog:
+--------------------------+
patches/packages/kdebase-workspace-4.2.4-i486-2_slack13.0.txz:  Rebuilt.
  Patched a security issue with KDM.
  For more information, see:
    http://cve.mitre.org/cgi-bin/cvename.cgi?name=CVE-2010-0436
  (* Security fix *)
+--------------------------+


Where to find the 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
directly from ftp.slackware.com.

Thanks to the friendly folks at the OSU Open Source Lab
(http://osuosl.org) for donating additional FTP and rsync hosting
to the Slackware project!  :-)

Also see the "Get Slack" section on http://slackware.com for
additional mirror sites near you.
