-------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Fedora Update Notification FEDORA-2007-3011 2007-11-09 23:41:12.926770 -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Name : tomboy Product : Fedora 7 Version : 0.6.1 Release : 2.fc7 URL : http://www.beatniksoftware.com/tomboy/ Summary : Tomboy is a desktop note-taking application for Linux and Unix Description : Tomboy is a desktop note-taking application for Linux and Unix. Simple and easy to use, but with potential to help you organize the ideas and information you deal with every day. The key to Tomboy's usefulness lies in the ability to relate notes and ideas together. Using a WikiWiki-like linking system, organizing ideas is as simple as typing a name. Branching an idea off is easy as pressing the Link button. And links between your ideas won't break, even when renaming and reorganizing them. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Update Information: This update resolves a low severity security issue where LD_LIBRARY_PATH could potentially get set to the current directory if it wasn't set before Tomboy was launched. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- ChangeLog: * Tue Nov 6 2007 Ray Strode <rstrode@redhat.com> - 0.6.1-2 - Fix bug 252294, CVE-2005-4790 -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- References: [ 1 ] Bug #362941 - CVE-2005-4790 tomboy includes CWD in LD_LIBRARY_PATH [F7] https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=362941 [ 2 ] CVE-2005-4790 http://www.cve.mitre.org/cgi-bin/cvename.cgi?name=CVE-200... -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Updated packages: 721ad30740b7669657baa94234f887bc41414b73 tomboy-0.6.1-2.fc7.i386.rpm 0216e31427454b2e07d1ec81ef55b148a899eb7e tomboy-debuginfo-0.6.1-2.fc7.i386.rpm 6732454fba9836cab0b44fb82b1ee4aa8e414916 tomboy-0.6.1-2.fc7.x86_64.rpm 4f0b7427798adb47a54a34f4b9e96a3ef3ca575e tomboy-debuginfo-0.6.1-2.fc7.x86_64.rpm 3b6fe061bf9542ae991df8eb1b92f416f2a05962 tomboy-debuginfo-0.6.1-2.fc7.ppc.rpm 499d72c90787d6583da815c1c00a7da72b94f005 tomboy-0.6.1-2.fc7.ppc.rpm 440e92c0bccceda2e77fdcd8cc90a0a1228ca2c7 tomboy-0.6.1-2.fc7.src.rpm This update can be installed with the "yum" update program.
