-------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Fedora Update Notification FEDORA-2010-15758 2010-10-05 08:59:31 --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Name : expat Product : Fedora 12 Version : 2.0.1 Release : 8.2.fc12 URL : http://www.libexpat.org/ Summary : An XML parser library Description : This is expat, the C library for parsing XML, written by James Clark. Expat is a stream oriented XML parser. This means that you register handlers with the parser prior to starting the parse. These handlers are called when the parser discovers the associated structures in the document being parsed. A start tag is an example of the kind of structures for which you may register handlers. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Update Information: This update fixes a regression introduced in the security fix for CVE-2009-3560. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- ChangeLog: * Mon Feb 8 2010 Joe Orton <[email protected]> - 2.0.1-8.2 - revised fix for CVE-2009-3560 (#544996) * Sun Jan 31 2010 Joe Orton <[email protected]> - 2.0.1-8.1 - fix regression in patch for CVE-2009-3560 (#544996) * Tue Dec 1 2009 Joe Orton <[email protected]> - 2.0.1-8 - add security fix for CVE-2009-3560 (#533174) - add security fix for CVE-2009-3720 (#531697) - run the test suite -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- References: [ 1 ] Bug #544996 - expat-1.95.8-CVE-2009-3560.patch breaks validation of external entity reference https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=544996 -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- This update can be installed with the "yum" update program.
