+* Noteworthy changes in release 1.4 (2010-01-20) [stable]
+
+** Bug fixes
+
+  gzip -d could segfault and/or clobber the stack, possibly leading to
+  arbitrary code execution.  This affects x86_64 but not 32-bit systems.
+  This fixes CVE-2010-0001.
+  For more details, see http://bugzilla.redhat.com/554418
+
+  gzip -d would fail with a CRC error for some valid inputs.
+  So far, the only valid input known to exhibit this failure was
+  compressed "from FAT filesystem (MS-DOS, OS/2, NT)".  In addition,
+  to trigger the failure, your memcpy implementation must copy in
+  the "reverse" order.
+
+
+* Noteworthy changes in release 1.3.14 (2009-10-30) [beta]
+
+** Bug fixes
+
+  gzip no longer fails when there is exactly one trailing NUL byte
+  gzip has always accepted trailing NUL bytes.  Note the plural.
+
+  zdiff would exit with status 2 (indicating an error) rather than 1 to
+  indicate differences when both inputs were compressed and different.
+
+  zdiff would fail to print differences in two compressed inputs
+
+  zgrep -f - didn't work
+
+
+* Noteworthy changes in release 1.3.13 (2009-09-30) [stable]
+
+** Bug fixes
+
+  gzip -d no longer fails with "-" as 2nd or subsequent argument
+
+  gzip no longer ignores a close-induced write failure, e.g., on NFS
+
+  gzip -d no longer segfaults on certain invalid inputs

 Major changes in Gzip 1.3.12 (2007-04-13)
 
 * znew now uses $TMPDIR (default /tmp) instead of always using /tmp.
 
+* 'gzip -f foo.gz' now creates a file foo.gz.gz instead of complaining.
+
+* It is now documented that gzip ignores case when examining file name
+  extensions; for example, 'gzip test.Gz' (without -f) fails because
+  the file name ends in '.Gz'.

 Major changes in Gzip 1.3.11 (2007-02-05)
