-------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Fedora Update Notification FEDORA-2013-0325 2013-01-06 21:47:36 --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Name : mozilla-https-everywhere Product : Fedora 18 Version : 3.1.2 Release : 1.fc18 URL : https://eff.org/https-everywhere Summary : HTTPS/HSTS enforcement extension for Mozilla Firefox and SeaMonkey Description : HTTPS Everywhere is a Firefox extension produced as a collaboration between The Tor Project and the Electronic Frontier Foundation. It encrypts your communications with a number of major websites. Many sites on the web offer some limited support for encryption over HTTPS, but make it difficult to use. For instance, they may default to unencrypted HTTP, or fill encrypted pages with links that go back to the unencrypted site. The HTTPS Everywhere extension fixes these problems by rewriting all requests to these sites to HTTPS. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Update Information: * Release 3.1.2, since 3.1.1 was accidentally mis-tagged * Fixes for: AmazonAWS/Datawrapper, Cachefly, Cloudfront/C-SPAN, Hetzner.de KeyDrive/Snapnames, QT, openDesktop, OpenTTD, WhiskeyMedia https://mail1.eff.org/pipermail/https-everywhere-rules/2012-December/001432.html https://trac.torproject.org/projects/tor/ticket/7608 https://trac.torproject.org/projects/tor/ticket/7567 https://mail1.eff.org/pipermail/https-everywhere-rules/2012-December/001432.html https://trac.torproject.org/projects/tor/ticket/7560 https://trac.torproject.org/projects/tor/ticket/7796 * Disable broken: FlossManuals, Pastebin, Poste.it, Ustream, TED, AusGamers https://trac.torproject.org/projects/tor/ticket/7731 https://trac.torproject.org/projects/tor/ticket/7850 https://trac.torproject.org/projects/tor/ticket/7840 https://trac.torproject.org/projects/tor/ticket/7548 * Increase Observatory deployment (65%->85%) * Update cert whitelist -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- ChangeLog: * Thu Jan 3 2013 Russell Golden <[email protected]> - 3.1.2-1 - Fixes for: AmazonAWS/Datawrapper, Cachefly, Cloudfront/C-SPAN, Hetzner.de KeyDrive/Snapnames, QT, openDesktop, OpenTTD, WhiskeyMedia https://mail1.eff.org/pipermail/https-everywhere-rules/2012-December/001432.html https://trac.torproject.org/projects/tor/ticket/7608 https://trac.torproject.org/projects/tor/ticket/7567 https://mail1.eff.org/pipermail/https-everywhere-rules/2012-December/001432.html https://trac.torproject.org/projects/tor/ticket/7560 https://trac.torproject.org/projects/tor/ticket/7796 - Disable broken: FlossManuals, Pastebin, Poste.it, Ustream, TED, AusGamers https://trac.torproject.org/projects/tor/ticket/7731 https://trac.torproject.org/projects/tor/ticket/7850 https://trac.torproject.org/projects/tor/ticket/7840 https://trac.torproject.org/projects/tor/ticket/7548 - Increase Observatory deployment (65>85%) - Update cert whitelist * Wed Dec 12 2012 Russell Golden <[email protected]> - 3.1-1 - Hacky solution to a very nasty bug in which <securecookie> directives would cause cookies to be flagged as secure even if they were set from HTTP origins! https://trac.torproject.org/projects/tor/ticket/7491 https://mail1.eff.org/pipermail/https-everywhere-rules/2012-November/001397.html - Fixes: Akamai, Biomed central, BYU, Cachefly / Topix, DuckDuckGo, Focus.de, Fortum, Mashable, Mail.ru, MayFirst/People Link, MIT, Rackspace, Salsa Labs, SurveyMonkey, Tumblr - Disable: Adtech.de, AllthingsD American Public Media, Dafont, MediaFire, Verizon, vk.com, Wired, Conde Nast - Observatory-only translations into Hebrew and Croatian - Offer the SSL Observatory popup to a larger cohort of users -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- This update can be installed with the "yum" update program.
