a/glibc-solibs-2.24-x86_64-2.txz: Rebuilt. a/kernel-firmware-20160823git-noarch-1.txz: Upgraded. a/kernel-generic-4.4.19-x86_64-1.txz: Upgraded. A flaw was found in the implementation of the Linux kernels handling of networking challenge ack where an attacker is able to determine the shared counter. This may allow an attacker located on different subnet to inject or take over a TCP connection between a server and client without having to be a traditional Man In the Middle (MITM) style attack. For more information, see: http://cve.mitre.org/cgi-bin/cvename.cgi?name=CVE-2016-5389 (* Security fix *) a/kernel-huge-4.4.19-x86_64-1.txz: Upgraded.

Thanks to Stuart Winter. ap/screen-4.4.0-x86_64-2.txz: Rebuilt. Reverted a change to /etc/screenrc.new that prevented the console from being cleared when a screen session was detached. Thanks to Stuart Winter. d/binutils-2.27-x86_64-2.txz: Rebuilt. Recompiled with --disable-compressed-debug-sections, since other tools are not yet capable of parsing that. Thanks to Vincent Batts, Heinz Wiesinger, and Stuart Winter. d/kernel-headers-4.4.19-x86-1.txz: Upgraded. k/kernel-source-4.4.19-noarch-1.txz: Upgraded.

For more information, see: http://cve.mitre.org/cgi-bin/cvename.cgi?name=CVE-2016-5389 (* Security fix *) l/glib2-2.46.2-x86_64-3.txz: Rebuilt. Applied upstream patch to fix a use-before-allocate bug in libgio. Without this fix, Thunar will crash if $HOME is on an NFS volume. Thanks to Jonathan Woithe. l/glibc-2.24-x86_64-2.txz: Rebuilt. If libm.so is a linker script, don't clobber it with a symlink. Thanks to guanx. l/glibc-i18n-2.24-x86_64-2.txz: Rebuilt. l/glibc-profile-2.24-x86_64-2.txz: Rebuilt. n/gnupg-1.4.21-x86_64-1.txz: Upgraded. Fix critical security bug in the RNG [CVE-2016-6313]. An attacker who obtains 580 bytes from the standard RNG can trivially predict the next 20 bytes of output. (This is according to the NEWS file included in the source. According to the annoucement linked below, an attacker who obtains 4640 bits from the RNG can trivially predict the next 160 bits of output.) Problem detected by Felix Doerre and Vladimir Klebanov, KIT.

In rc.inet1, skip interfaces that are not configured in rc.inet1.conf to speed up the boot time slightly. Thanks to Amritpal Bath. n/stunnel-5.35-x86_64-2.txz: Rebuilt. Fixed incorrect config file name in generate-stunnel-key.sh. Thanks to Ebben Aries. xap/mozilla-firefox-48.0.1-x86_64-1.txz: Upgraded. isolinux/initrd.img: Rebuilt. kernels/*: Upgraded. usb-and-pxe-installers/usbboot.img: Rebuilt.
