Description fbusse 2004-01-09 00:49:56 UTC
The new version fixes a DoS in leafnode that can occur with the default settings.
Although this bug is remotly exploitable, it's doesn't allow remote privilege escalation.

Please take a good look at #36368 - because there are changes between the
ebuild in portage and this one.

BTW: There is already a new version.

1.9.49 (x86) and .50 (~x86) already committed to the tree. .42 will be deprecated shortly.
