-------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Fedora Update Notification FEDORA-2009-10237 2009-10-03 17:54:32 -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Name : deltarpm Product : Fedora 11 Version : 3.4 Release : 17.fc11 URL : Summary : Create deltas between rpms Description : A deltarpm contains the difference between an old and a new version of a rpm, which makes it possible to recreate the new rpm from the deltarpm and the old one. You don't have to have a copy of the old rpm, deltarpms can also work with installed rpms. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Update Information: deltarpm prior to the current build ships with a bundled copy of zlib. This version of zlib has a known vulnerability with CVE identifier: CAN-2005-1849 This build of deltarpm patches the program to use the system zlib (which was fixed when the vulnerability was first discovered) instead of the bundled copy. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- ChangeLog: * Wed Sep 30 2009 Toshio Kuratomi- 3.4-17 - Work around cvs tag problem * Wed Sep 30 2009 Toshio Kuratomi - 3.4-16 - Build against the system zlib, not the bundled library. This remedies the fact that the included zlib is affected by CAN-2005-1849. - Fix cfile_detect_rsync() to detect rsync even if we don't have a zlib capable of making rsync-friendly compressed files. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- References: [ 1 ] Bug #526432 - deltarpm contains an own, modified copy of zlib https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=526432 -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- This update can be installed with the "yum" update program. Use su -c 'yum update deltarpm' at the command line. For more information, refer to "Managing Software with yum", available at . All packages are signed with the Fedora Project GPG key.
