NEWS
Wednesday, June 26th, 2019
DOSBox 0.74-3 has been released!
A security release for DOSBox 0.74:
* Fixed that a very long line inside a bat file would overflow the
parsing buffer. (CVE-2019-7165 by Alexandre Bartel)
* Added a basic permission system so that a program running inside DOSBox
can't access the contents of /proc (e.g. /proc/self/mem) when / or
/proc were (to be) mounted. (CVE-2019-12594 by Alexandre Bartel)
* Several other fixes for out of bounds access and buffer overflows.
* Some fixes to the OpenGL rendering.
The game compatibility should be identical to 0.74 and 0.74-2.
It's recommended to use config -securemode when dealing with untrusted files.
