Fedora Test Update Notification
FEDORA-2004-1553
Bugzilla https://bugzilla.fedora.us/show_bug.cgi?id=1553
2004-06-16

Name        : sysklogd
Version 7.3 : 1.4.1-14.legacy.7x
Version 9   : 1.4.1-14.legacy.9
Summary     : System logging and kernel message trapping daemons.
Description :
The sysklogd package contains two system utilities (syslogd and klogd)
which provide support for system logging.  Syslogd and klogd run as
daemons (background processes) and log system messages to different
places, like sendmail logs, security logs, error logs, etc.
 
- ---------------------------------------------------------------------
Update Information:
 
During a code review it was discovered that syslogd does not allocate
enough memory to store all its pointers in the crunch list.
 
crunch_list is only called from the commandline, so it's not an
exploitable security issue (although it is a bug.)
