[slackware-security]  tftp-hpa (SSA:2026-188-01)

New tftp-hpa packages are available for Slackware 15.0 and -current to
fix security issues.


Here are the details from the Slackware 15.0 ChangeLog:
+--------------------------+
patches/packages/tftp-hpa-5.4-i586-1_slack15.0.txz:  Upgraded.
  This update fixes bugs and security issues:
  Fix several security-relevant bugs in path validation
  (tftpd/path.c): an uninitialized buffer read and a broken
  path tokenizer could let a crafted or unlucky request bypass
  path restrictions or crash the daemon.
  Fix buffer overflows in the tftp client: an unbounded strcpy()
  when building requests, an out-of-bounds write when putting
  multiple files to a remote directory, and an unbounded write
  into the interactive command-line argument array.
  Fix an out-of-bounds read while scanning request fields in
  tftpd, and an incorrect address family used when creating the
  per-transfer socket on platforms without recvmsg().
  (* Security fix *)
