-------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Fedora Update Notification FEDORA-2012-9029 2012-06-07 22:09:07 --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Name : boost Product : Fedora 16 Version : 1.47.0 Release : 7.fc16 URL : http://www.boost.org Summary : The free peer-reviewed portable C++ source libraries Description : Boost provides free peer-reviewed portable C++ source libraries. The emphasis is on libraries which work well with the C++ Standard Library, in the hopes of establishing "existing practice" for extensions and providing reference implementations so that the Boost libraries are suitable for eventual standardization. (Some of the libraries have already been proposed for inclusion in the C++ Standards Committee's upcoming C++ Standard Library Technical Report.) -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Update Information: - This update fixes a bug in Boost.Pool, which could under certain circumstances overflow allocated chunk size. This could have security implications for applications that use Boost pool without sanitizing pool parameters. - Add a sub-package boost-math with math-related bits from Boost.TR1. This was left out by mistake. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- ChangeLog: * Wed Jun 6 2012 Petr Machata <[email protected]> - 1.47.0-7 - In Boost.Pool, be careful not to overflow allocated chunk size. - Resolves: #828857 * Wed Jan 4 2012 Denis Arnaud <[email protected]> - 1.47.0-6 - Integrated into "upstream" (CMake-ified Boost) the Boost.TR1/Math patch. * Wed Jan 4 2012 Petr Machata <[email protected]> - 1.47.0-5 - Build math portion of Boost.TR1, package DSOs in boost-math. - Resolves: #771370 * Thu Nov 3 2011 Petr Machata <[email protected]> - 1.47.0-4 - Use <boost/tr1/tuple> instead of C++11 header <tuple> in boost math. - Resolves: #751210 -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- References: [ 1 ] Bug #828857 - boost: ordered_malloc() overflow [fedora-all] https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=828857 [ 2 ] Bug #771370 - Boost math libraries still needed https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=771370 -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- This update can be installed with the "yum" update program.
