Description Vasyl Kaigorodov 2015-03-18 13:05:33 UTC
Privoxy 3.0.23 fixes following security issue:

- Fixed multiple segmentation faults and memory leaks in the
  pcrs code. This fix also increases the chances that an invalid
  pcrs command is rejected as such. Previously some invalid commands
  would be loaded without error. Note that Privoxy's pcrs sources
  (action and filter files) are considered trustworthy input and
  should not be writable by untrusted third-parties.
