-------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Fedora Update Notification FEDORA-2010-4339 2010-03-13 01:29:41 --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Name : gnu-smalltalk Product : Fedora 12 Version : 3.1 Release : 8.fc12 URL : http://www.gnu.org/software/smalltalk/smalltalk.html Summary : GNU Smalltalk Description : GNU Smalltalk is an implementation that closely follows the Smalltalk-80 language as described in the book `Smalltalk-80: the Language and its Implementation' by Adele Goldberg and David Robson. The Smalltalk programming language is an object oriented programming language. Unlike other Smalltalks (including Smalltalk-80), GNU Smalltalk emphasizes Smalltalk's rapid prototyping features rather than the graphical and easy-to-use nature of the programming environment. Therefore, even though we have a nice GUI environment including a class browser, the goal of the GNU Smalltalk project is currently to produce a complete system to be used to write your scripts in a clear, aesthetically pleasing, and philosophically appealing programming language. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Update Information: Remove embedded ltdl to fix CVE-2009-3736 -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- ChangeLog: * Thu Mar 11 2010 Jochen Schmitt <Jochen herr-schmitt de> 3.1-8 - Remove embedded ltdl (#563974, CVE-2009-3736) - Rebuild agains new gdbm (so namber was bumped) -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- References: [ 1 ] Bug #563974 - CVE-2009-3736 libtool: libltdl may load and execute code from a library in the current directory [Fedora all] https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=563974 -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- This update can be installed with the "yum" update program.
