- Update ot version 1.5.1
ChangeLog for version 1.5.1
Many thanks to Rainer Gerhards, rsyslog project lead, for
identifying a problem with how rsyslog's rsyslogd and sysklogd's
syslogd check for invalid priority values (CVE-2014-3634).
ChangeLog for version 1.5
* Fix file descriptor leak in klogd
* Improve argument list processing
* Prevent potential buffer overflow in reading messages from the
kernel log ringbuffer
* Ensure that "len" is not placed in a register, and that the endtty()
signal handler is not installed too early which could cause a
segmentation fault or worse
* klogd will reconnect to the logger (mostly syslogd) after it went
away during operation
* On heavily loaded system syslog will not spit out error messages
anymore when recvfrom() results in EAGAIN
* Makefile improvements
* Local copy of module.h
* Improved manpage
* Always log with syslogd's timezone and locale
* Remove trailing newline when forwarding messages
* Continue working properly if /etc/service is missing and ignore
network activity
* Continue writing to log files as soon as space becomes available
again after a filled up disk
* Removed test to detect control characters> 0x20 as this prevented
characters encoded in UTF-8 to be properly passed through
* Only resolve the local domain when accepting messages from remote
* Properly accompany the MARK message with the facility
