-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 [slackware-security] mozilla-firefox (SSA:2013-180-01) New mozilla-firefox packages are available for Slackware 13.37, 14.0, and -current to fix security issues. Here are the details from the Slackware 14.0 ChangeLog: +--------------------------+ patches/packages/mozilla-firefox-17.0.7esr-i486-1_slack14.0.txz: Upgraded. This release contains security fixes and improvements. For more information, see: http://www.mozilla.org/security/known-vulnerabilities/firefoxESR.html (* Security fix *) We had to switch to ESR here as well, as there's a problem running Firefox 22.0 on Slackware 14.0 under KDE (crash when oxygen-gtk2 is installed). Forcing people to uninstall oxygen-gtk2 isn't really an option for a security fix, and upgrading to the latest oxygen-gtk2 did not help. It's possible that future Firefox/Thunderbird security updates will always come from the ESR branch. +--------------------------+ Where to find the new packages: +-----------------------------+ Thanks to the friendly folks at the OSU Open Source Lab (http://osuosl.org) for donating FTP and rsync hosting to the Slackware project! :-) Also see the "Get Slack" section on http://slackware.com for additional mirror sites near you.
