-rsync 2.5.3 (not released yet)
+rsync 2.5.4 (13 March 2002)
 
-  SECURITY FIXES:
-
-    * Make sure that supplementary groups are removed from a server
-      process after changing uid and gid. (Ethan Benson)
+  "Imitation lizard skin"
 
   BUG FIXES:
 
-    * Fixed problem that in many cases caused the error message 
-	unexpected read size of 0 in map_ptr
-      and resulted in the wrong data being copied.
-
-    * Fixed compilation errors on some systems caused by the use of
-      "unsigned int64" in rsync.h.
-
-    * Fixed problem on systems such as Sunos4 that do not support realloc
-      on a NULL pointer; error was "out of memory in flist_expand".
-
-    * Fix for rsync server processes hanging around after the client
-      unexpectedly disconnects.  (Colin Walters) (Debian bug #128632)
-
+    * Additional fix for zlib double-free bug.  (Martin Pool, Andrew
+      Tridgell) (CVE CAN-2002-0059)
+ 
   ENHANCEMENTS:
 
-    * Command to initiate connections is only shown with -vv, rather
-      than -v as in 2.5.2.  Output from plain -v is more similar to
-      what was historically used so as not to break scripts that try
-      to parse the output.
-
-    * Added --no-whole-file and --no-blocking-io options (Dave Dykstra)
-
-    * Made the --write-batch and --read-batch options actually work
-      and added documentation in the man page (Jos Backus)
+    * Merge in changes from zlib 1.1.3 to zlib 1.1.4.  (Jos Backus)
+      (Note that rsync still uses a custom version of zlib; you can
+      not just link against a system library.  See zlib/README.rsync)
 
-    * If the daemon is unable to fork a child to accept a connection,
-      print an error message.  (Colin Walters)
+    * Additional test cases for --compress.  (Martin Pool)
