Fedora alert FEDORA-2010-4302 (cpio)
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Fedora Update Notification FEDORA-2010-4302 2010-03-12 03:08:13 -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Name : cpio Product : Fedora 11 Version : 2.9.90 Release : 8.fc11 URL : http://www.gnu.org/software/cpio/ Summary : A GNU archiving program Description : GNU cpio copies files into or out of a cpio or tar archive. Archives are files which contain a collection of other files plus information about them, such as their file name, owner, timestamps, and access permissions. The archive can be another file on the disk, a magnetic tape, or a pipe. GNU cpio supports the following archive formats: binary, old ASCII, new ASCII, crc, HPUX binary, HPUX old ASCII, old tar and POSIX.1 tar. By default, cpio creates binary format archives, so that they are compatible with older cpio programs. When it is extracting files from archives, cpio automatically recognizes which kind of archive it is reading and can read archives created on machines with a different byte-order. Install cpio if you need a program to manage file archives. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Update Information: - CVE-2010-0624 fix heap-based buffer overflow by expanding a specially- crafted archive(#572150) -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- ChangeLog: * Wed Mar 10 2010 Ondrej Vasik <ovasik@redhat.com> 2.9.90-8 - CVE-2010-0624 fix heap-based buffer overflow by expanding a specially-crafted archive(#572150) * Thu Feb 25 2010 Ondrej Vasik <ovasik@redhat.com> 2.9.90-7 - fix segfault with nonexisting file with patternnames (#567022) - do process install-info only without --excludedocs(#515924) * Tue Dec 1 2009 Ondrej Vasik <ovasik@redhat.com> 2.9.90-6 - fix buffer overflow detection by fortify sources (#542389) -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- References: [ 1 ] Bug #564368 - CVE-2010-0624 tar, cpio: Heap-based buffer overflow by expanding a specially-crafted archive https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=564368 -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- This update can be installed with the "yum" update program.
