-------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Fedora Update Notification FEDORA-2018-4295467df0 2018-08-30 04:50:15.760188 -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Name : libxkbcommon Product : Fedora 28 Version : 0.8.2 Release : 1.fc28 URL : http://www.x.org Summary : X.Org X11 XKB parsing library Description : libxkbcommon is the X.Org library for compiling XKB maps into formats usable by the X Server or other display servers. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Update Information: libxkbcommon 0.8.2, CVE-2018-15853 to 15864. These fix a number of memory handling issues with xkbcommon.
