Patch for Mosquitto vulnerability CVE-2018-12543 in Fedora enhances both stability and logging functionalities.
Release 1.5.3 Security: * Fix CVE-2018-12543

Summary

Mosquitto is an open source message broker that implements the MQ Telemetry

Transport protocol version 3.1 and 3.1.1 MQTT provides a lightweight method

of carrying out messaging using a publish/subscribe model. This makes it

suitable for "machine to machine" messaging such as with low power sensors

or mobile devices such as phones, embedded computers or micro-controllers

like the Arduino.

Release 1.5.3 Security: * Fix CVE-2018-12543. If a message is sent to

Mosquitto with a topic that begins with $, but is not $SYS, then an assert that

should be unreachable is triggered and Mosquitto will exit. Broker: * Elevate

log level to warning for situation when socket limit is hit. * Remove

requirement to use `user root` in snap package config files. * Fix retained

messages not sent by bridges on outgoing topics at the first connection. *

Documentation fixes. * Fix duplicate clients being added to by_id hash before

the old client was removed. * Fix Windows version not starting if include_dir

did not contain any files. Build: * Various fixes to ease building. ----Use WITH_BUNDLED_DEPS=no
