Dear all,

Babeld-1.6.1 is available from

   http://www.pps.univ-paris-diderot.fr/~jch/software/files/babeld-1.6.1.tar.gz
   http://www.pps.univ-paris-diderot.fr/~jch/software/files/babeld-1.6.1.tar.gz.asc

This version fixes a buffer overflow which, while probably not
exploitable, could in principle cause incorrect routing tables to be
computed in the presence of source-specific routes.  The other
user-visible change is that ipv6-subtrees will be used by default on Linux
3.11 and later.

Please upgrade.

16 June 2015: babeld-1.6.1.

   * Fixed a buffer overflow in zone_equal.  This is probably not
     exploitable, but might cause incorrect routing tables in the presence
     of source-specific routing.
   * Added support for defaulting ipv6-subtrees automatically based on the
     kernel version.
   * Fixed compilation under musl.
