Hi,

  We've released tcpdump 3.7.2 and libpcap 0.7.2 .  tcpdump 3.7.2 addresses
today's iDEFENSE Advisory 02.27.03, as well as a couple of other security
problems.  libpcap 0.7.2 has no security updates, just some bugfixes and
minor new functionality.

  The releases are available both from www.tcpdump.org and sourceforge.
Enjoy!

  Bill
