Fedora 28: FEDORA-2019-b1234567e2 Important: NetworkManager Security Update

fedora

Dist Fedora Esm H88
Critical libsoup patch released for Fedora 27 for vulnerabilities linked to CVE-2018-12910, featuring upstream code fixes.
This update backports an upstream fix for CVE-2018-12910.

Summary

Libsoup is an HTTP library implementation in C. It was originally part

of a SOAP (Simple Object Access Protocol) implementation called Soup, but

the SOAP and non-SOAP parts have now been split into separate packages.

libsoup uses the Glib main loop and is designed to work well with GTK

applications. This enables GNOME applications to access HTTP servers

on the network in a completely asynchronous fashion, very similar to

the Gtk+ programming model (a synchronous operation mode is also

supported for those who want it).

This update backports an upstream fix for CVE-2018-12910.
