-------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Fedora Update Notification FEDORA-2012-6674 2012-04-26 19:20:08 --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Name : puppet Product : Fedora 17 Version : 2.7.13 Release : 1.fc17 URL : http://puppetlabs.com Summary : A network tool for managing many disparate systems Description : Puppet lets you centrally manage every important aspect of your system using a cross-platform specification language that manages all the separate elements normally aggregated in different files, like users, cron jobs, and hosts, along with obviously discrete elements like packages, services, and files. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Update Information: With Fedora 17 using ruby-1.9.3, an update to puppet-2.7, which has improved support for ruby-1.9, is required. Note that ruby-1.9 is not fully supported in the puppet-2.7 series. Where possible, patches from the next upstream release branch will be backported to improve ruby-1.9 compatibility. Also note that there will likely be issues when connecting to a puppet-2.6 master. This is unavoidable for the moment. Normally all Fedora and EPEL branches are kept in sync to avoid this problem. At this time, a decision to move all branches to 2.7 has not been made. This update obsoletes puppet-2.6.16, which fixed several security issues recently found in puppet related to filebucket functionality. For full details, refer to the upstream release notes: http://projects.puppetlabs.com/projects/1/wiki/Release_Notes#2.7.13 -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- References: [ 1 ] Bug #810069 - CVE-2012-1986 puppet: Filebucket arbitrary file read https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=810069 [ 2 ] Bug #810070 - CVE-2012-1987 puppet: Filebucket denial of service https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=810070 [ 3 ] Bug #810071 - CVE-2012-1988 puppet: Filebucket arbitrary code execution https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=810071 -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- This update can be installed with the "yum" update program.
