Upgrade syslog-ng to 1.4.9, which is a security upgrade, and changes nothing compared to 1.4.8 or apply this patch:

I am looking for the 1.4.9a tar ball, but the "1.4.x (stable branch)" section doesn't list it. Do you have a direct URL for the tar ball?

/downloads/syslog-ng/1.4/ I forgot to update the download url, though it points to the 1.4.9a tarball (even if it still references to 1.4.9) -- Bazsi PGP info: KeyID 9AF8D0A9 Fingerprint CD27 CFB0 802C 0944 9CFD 804E C82C 8EB1 url: http://www.balabit.hu/pgpkey.txt
