Description Mark J. Cox 2005-01-25 09:32:35 UTC

Coverity Inc source checker found a few potential flaws.  Whilst most are
protected by ADMIN or NET_ADMIN and therefore not considered to be a security
risk, one could possibly allow an unprivileged denial of service (crash) or
maybe more.  For the fix see
