From d5abf5ff6188593dfc701decf8d33d38a924b45b Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Peter Korsgaard Date: Sun, 22 Nov 2020 16:30:38 +0100 Subject: [PATCH] package/xinetd: add upstream security fix for CVE-2013-4342 xinetd does not enforce the user and group configuration directives for TCPMUX services, which causes these services to be run as root and makes it easier for remote attackers to gain privileges by leveraging another vulnerability in a service.
