-------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Fedora Update Notification FEDORA-2012-20869 2012-12-23 03:26:34 --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Name : netcf Product : Fedora 17 Version : 0.2.3 Release : 1.fc17 URL : https://fedorahosted.org/netcf/ Summary : Cross-platform network configuration library Description : Netcf is a library used to modify the network configuration of a system. Network configurations are expressed in a platform-independent XML format, which netcf translates into changes to the system's 'native' network configuration files. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Update Information: This update eliminates a potential crash due to netcf calling a non-threadsafe libnl function. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- ChangeLog: * Fri Dec 21 2012 Laine Stump <[email protected]> - 0.2.3-1 - Rebase to netcf-0.2.3 - eliminate calls to nl_cache_mngt_provide(), to avoid non-threadsafe code in libnl (and because it isn't needed anyway) (This non-threadsafe code could lead to a segfault) - portability fixes for FreeBSD - fix bug when a config file has two config parameters with identical names - add HACKING document - always bail immediately if get_augeas fails (doing otherwise could lead to a segfault) * Thu Sep 6 2012 Laine Stump <[email protected]> - 0.2.2-1 - Rebase to netcf-0.2.2 - update gnulib to fix broken build on systems with nwer glibc (which no longer provides gets()). - add ncftool manpage - interfaces are only "active" if both UP and RUNNING. - add "bundled(gnulib)" to specfile to indicate that we use a local copy of gnulib sources (used by Fedora/RHEL when determining the scope of security bugs). - Fix ipcalc_netmask, which was trimming off the last digit in character representations of full-length netmasks (all 4 octets having 3 chars each) - fix missing <bond> and <vlan> elements in status xml - other minor bugfixes -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- References: [ 1 ] Bug #886454 - libnl addr and link caches are not thread-safe, leading to libvirtd crashes https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=886454 -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- This update can be installed with the "yum" update program.
