We have received a report from the author of epic4 covering a denial
of service vulnerability.  All versions of epic4 between version
pre1.034 (including) and version pre2.004-19990718 (excluding) are
vulnerable.  They contain code which makes epic4 walk off of a string,
causing the client to crash and possibly display arbitrary characters
on the terminal.


We recommend you upgrade your epic4 packages immediately.
