-------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Fedora Update Notification FEDORA-2009-12562 2009-12-03 04:34:37 --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Name : libtool Product : Fedora 12 Version : 2.2.6 Release : 17.fc12 URL : http://www.gnu.org/software/libtool/ Summary : The GNU Portable Library Tool Description : GNU Libtool is a set of shell scripts which automatically configure UNIX and UNIX-like systems to generically build shared libraries. Libtool provides a consistent, portable interface which simplifies the process of using shared libraries. If you are developing programs which will use shared libraries, but do not use the rest of the GNU Autotools (such as GNU Autoconf and GNU Automake), you should install the libtool package. The libtool package also includes all files needed to integrate the GNU Portable Library Tool (libtool) and the GNU Libtool Dynamic Module Loader (ltdl) into a package built using the GNU Autotools (including GNU Autoconf and GNU Automake). -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Update Information: libltdl may load and execute code from a library in the current directory. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- ChangeLog: * Wed Dec 2 2009 Karsten Hopp <[email protected]> 2.2.6-17 - fix directory name used in libtool tarball * Wed Dec 2 2009 Karsten Hopp <[email protected]> 2.2.6-16 - update to 2.2.6b, fixes CVE-2009-3736: libltdl may load and execute code from a library in the current directory -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- References: [ 1 ] Bug #537941 - CVE-2009-3736 libtool: libltdl may load and execute code from a library in the current directory https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=537941 -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- This update can be installed with the "yum" update program.
