Upgraded OpenSSH packages have been provided to make sure that ssh is not
broken my the update -- especially if your machine is a remote one, be SURE
to upgrade to the new openssh package as well!
Here are the details from the Slackware 12.1 ChangeLog:
+--------------------------+
patches/packages/openssl-0.9.8h-i486-1_slack12.1.tgz:
Upgraded to OpenSSL 0.9.8h.
The Codenomicon TLS test suite uncovered security bugs in OpenSSL.
If OpenSSL was compiled using non-default options (Slackware's package
is not), then a malicious packet could cause a crash. Also, a malformed
TLS handshake could also lead to a crash.
For more information, see:
[links moved to references]
When upgrading OpenSSL, it is VERY IMPORTANT to also upgrade OpenSSH, or
it is possible to be unable to log back into sshd!
(* Security fix *)
