Updated socat package fixes security vulnerability: In socat before 2.0.0-b8, signal handler implementations are not async-signal-safe and can cause crash or freeze of socat processes. Mostly this issue occurs when socat is in listening mode with fork option and a couple of child processes terminate at the same time (CVE-2015-1379).
