Dist Fedora Esm H88
Latest update issued for trickle to address CVE-2009-0415 vulnerability in Fedora 10, preventing unauthorized code execution.
New patch for CVE-2009-0415 Fix for #484065 - CVE-2009-0415 trickle: Possibility to load arbitrary code from current working directory

Summary

trickle is a portable lightweight userspace bandwidth shaper.

It can run in collaborative mode or in stand alone mode.

trickle works by taking advantage of the unix loader preloading.

Essentially it provides, to the application,

a new version of the functionality that is required

to send and receive data through sockets.

It then limits traffic based on delaying the sending

and receiving of data over a socket.

trickle runs entirely in userspace and does not require root privileges.
