Changelog for 7.6.6 (v7-stable)
Version 7.6.6 [v7.6-stable] 2014-09-30
- bugfix: potential abort when a message with PRI > 191 was processed
if the “pri-text” property was used in active templates, this could be abused to a remote denial of service from permitted senders see also: CVE-2014-3634 - bugfix: potential segfault on startup on 64 bit systems
This happened immediately on startup during config processing. Once rsyslog got past this stage, it could not happen. - bugfix: build problems on SuSe Linux
Thanks Andreas Stieger for the patch
