-------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Fedora Update Notification FEDORA-2017-69e06543c1 2017-11-22 01:03:54.847419 --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Name : perl-Net-Ping-External Product : Fedora 26 Version : 0.15 Release : 11.fc26 URL : http://search.cpan.org/dist/Net-Ping-External/ Summary : Cross-platform interface to ICMP "ping" utilities Description : Net::Ping::External is a module which interfaces with the "ping" command on many systems. It presently provides a single function, ping(), that takes in a hostname and (optionally) a timeout and returns true if the host is alive, and false otherwise. Unless you have the ability (and willingness) to run your scripts as the superuser on your system, this module will probably provide more accurate results than Net::Ping will. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Update Information: Fixes a command injection vulnerability (CVE-2008-7319) -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- References: [ 1 ] Bug #1510785 - CVE-2008-7319 perl-Net-Ping-External: Unproper argument sanitization [fedora-all] https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1510785 -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- This update can be installed with the "dnf" update program.
