Sysstat 12.7.7
02 Feb 2025
This version adds JSON output to pidstat, tapestat and cifsiostat with
new option "-o JSON". Now all sysstat commands can output their
statistics in JSON format.
It also includes an improved fix for CVE-2022-39377 and CVE-2023-33204
(sysstat overflow on 32-bit and possibly 64-bit systems) with a complete
rewrite of the overflow check function, fixing a last, late-detected flaw.
