CS Security Risk
  
 
Posted: Feb 17, 2016

Recently a major security hole in glibc, open source c library was announced and patched. CS uses glibc.  My next build this weekend will use the new version. If you are running older versions of CS, there is some security risk and you are advised to upgrade to this next executable linux version, or apply sudo yum update to glibc (or equivalent commands) and then rebuild your existing sources.

(technically I think the current risk for cs is relatively minor, since it involves not calling into cs but cs calling out to malicious websites and most of you never write scripts that go to random websites using tcpopen or jsonopen or such.)
