### v2.7.5 (2015-03-26):
+#### SECURITY FIXES
+
+* [`300834e`](https://github.com/npm/npm/commit/300834e91a4e2a95fb7fb59c309e7c3fc91d2312)
+ `tar@2.0.0`: Normalize symbolic links that point to targets outside the
+ extraction root. This prevents packages containing symbolic links from
+ overwriting targets outside the expected paths for a package. Thanks to [Tim
+ Cuthbertson](http://gfxmonk.net/) and the team at [Lift
+ Security](https://liftsecurity.io/) for working with the npm team to identify
+ this issue. ([@othiym23](https://github.com/othiym23))
+* [`0dc6875`](https://github.com/npm/npm/commit/0dc68757cffd5397c280bc71365d106523a5a052)
+ `semver@4.3.2`: Package versions can be no more than 256 characters long.
+ This prevents a situation in which parsing the version number can use
+ exponentially more time and memory to parse, leading to a potential denial of
+ service. Thanks to Adam Baldwin at Lift Security for bringing this to our
+ attention. ([@isaacs](https://github.com/isaacs))
