Description

New tetex packages are available for Slackware 10.2 and -current to
fix a possible security issue. teTeX-3.0 incorporates some code from
the xpdf program which has been shown to have various overflows that
could result in program crashes or possibly the execution of
arbitrary code as the teTeX user. This is especially important to
consider if teTeX is being used as part of a printer filter.
