Since many scripts in the system do not expect unusal characters in the system's host name the dhcp client needs to sanitize the host name offered by the server (CVE-2011-0996). Note this update is actually just a re-release of the previous one. The security fix made dhcpcd crash if the DHCP server sent a SIP option that was not decodable. </description> <packager>adrianSuSE</packager> </patchinfo>
