Re: Anyone having more information about the tcpdump security CVEs?



Hi

Thank you for the information.

How to upload and issue a DLA is available here:
https://wiki.debian.org/LTS/Development

I can issue the DLA if you do the upload.

Are you sure the new tcpdump is backwards compatible?

Best regards

// Ola
