fedora
Calendar Grey January 24, 2017
Dist Fedora Esm H88
This recent Fedora upgrade tackles security flaws within VLC and bolsters protection for video streaming services.
Update from 3.8.1 to 3.8.2

Summary

Audacious is an advanced audio player. It is free, lightweight, currently

based on GTK+ 2, runs on Linux and many other *nix platforms and is

focused on audio quality and supporting a wide range of audio codecs.

It still features an alternative skinned user interface (based on

Winamp 2.x skins). Historically, it started as a fork of Beep Media

Player (BMP), which itself forked from XMMS.

Update Information:

Update from 3.8.1 to 3.8.2. Also fixes console video game music emu vulnerability in the fully optional audacious-plugins-exotic subpackage: CVE-2016-9957, CVE-2016-9958, CVE-2016-9959, CVE-2016-9960, CVE-2016-9961
