screen @ Savannah: GNU Screen v.4.9.1

I'm announcing availability of GNU Screen v.4.9.1

Screen is a full-screen window manager that multiplexes a physical terminal between several processes, typically interactive shells.

This release:

  • Support stop/parity bits on serial port
  • Add needed system headers in checks and return values for implicit function declarations
  • Fixes:

- Avoid zombies after shell exit

- Missed signal sending permission check on failed query messages (CVE-2023-24626)

- manpage fixes

- source code fixes during cleanup

- UTF-8 encoding can emit invalid UTF-8 sequences for out of range unicode values

For full list of changes see

https://git.savannah.gnu.org/cgit/screen.git/log/?h=v.4.9.1

Release is available for download at:

https://ftp.gnu.org/gnu/screen/

or your closest mirror (may have some delay)

https://ftpmirror.gnu.org/screen/

Please report any bugs or regressions.

Thanks to everyone who contributed to this release.

Cheers,

Alex
