Immunix OS Security Advisory
Packages updated: glibc
Effected products: Immunix OS 6.2
Bugs Fixed: immunix/1322
Date: February 1, 2001
Advisory ID: IMNX-2001-62-001-01

**UPDATED PACKAGES**
Description:
The glibc packages that WireX released for Immunix 6.2 on January 19,
2001 in advisory IMNX-2000-62-043-01, did not fix the security
problems outlined that they intended to. New glibc packages have been
released which fix the glibc security problem. As an added bonus,
these packages also allow Kylix to run properly on Immunix 6.2.
We would like to thank John Hardin for bringing this to our attention,
and working with us to help correct the problem.

We apologize for the fault in the packages. Those responsible have
been sacked :)
