COMMAND

    screen (3.7.2)

SYSTEMS AFFECTED

    FreeBSD 2.1.5-RELEASE

PROBLEM

    Nathan Torkington wrote that it's possible to send a signal 11  to
    the latest  version of  screen (3.7.2)  and make  it coredump with
    the master.passwd file in memory.

SOLUTION

    Upgrade to 2.1.6 (preferably,  wait a few days  for 2.1.7)  In  OS
    versions 2.1.6 and greater suid programs will not dump core.
