-------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Fedora Update Notification FEDORA-2008-3283 2008-04-22 22:17:20 -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Name : chmsee Product : Fedora 8 Version : 1.0.0 Release : 2.30.fc8 URL : http://chmsee.gro.clinux.org/ Summary : A Gtk+2 CHM document viewer Description : A gtk2 chm document viewer. It uses chmlib to extract files. It uses gecko to display pages. It supports displaying multilingual pages due to gecko. It features bookmarks and tabs. The tabs could be used to jump inside the chm file conveniently. Its UI is clean and handy, also is well localized. It is actively developed and maintained. The author of chmsee is Jungle Ji and several other great people. Hint * Unlike other chm viewers, chmsee extracts files from chm file, and then read and display them. The extracted files could be found in $HOME/.chmsee/bookshelf directory. You can clean those files at any time and there is a special config option for that. * The bookmark is related to each file so not all bookmarks will be loaded, only current file's. * Try to remove $HOME/.chmsee if you encounter any problem after an upgrade. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Update Information: Mozilla Firefox is an open source Web browser. A flaw was found in the processing of malformed JavaScript content. A web page containing such malicious content could cause Firefox to crash or, potentially, execute arbitrary code as the user running Firefox. (CVE-2008-1380) All Firefox users should upgrade to these updated packages, which contain backported patches that correct these issues. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- ChangeLog: * Wed Apr 16 2008 Christopher Aillon <caillon@redhat.com> - 1.0.0-2.30 - Rebuild against newer gecko * Tue Mar 25 2008 Christopher Aillon <caillon@redhat.com> - 1.0.0-1.30 - Rebuild against newer gecko * Tue Mar 4 2008 bbbush <bbbush.yuan@gmail.com> - 1.0.0-1.29 - re-add firefox_version * Fri Feb 8 2008 Christopher Aillon <caillon@redhat.com> - 1.0.0-1.28 - Rebuild against newer gecko -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- References: [ 1 ] Bug #440518 - CVE-2008-1380 Firefox JavaScript garbage collection crash https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=440518 -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- This update can be installed with the "yum" update program.
