Hi

All versions of Trustix Secure Linux have hitherto been shipped with
a version of tmpwatch that can be tricked into excessive fork()ing
filling up the process table, requiring the box to be rebooted. The
version of tmpwatch can also, in certain cases, be tricked into
giving local users a root shell.

All users of TSL should upgrade to the new rpm:
tmpwatch-2.6.2-1tr.i586.rpm  (MD5sum:
3200b3812bfe6e87f326e240fed0686a)
