Fedora 34: 2021-b71f405f40 Critical: Transfig Security Issue

fedora
Calendar Grey June 6, 2021
Dist Fedora Esm H88
Maintenance release for Fedora 34 introducing a fix in transfig, upgrading to version 3.2.8a to remediate identified security flaws.
- New upstream release 3.2.8a - Add patches from upstream git fixing a couple of issues which may have security implications (CVE-2021-3561)

Summary

The transfig utility creates a makefile which translates FIG (created

by xfig) or PIC figures into a specified LaTeX graphics language (for

example, PostScript(TM)). Transfig is used to create TeX documents

which are portable (i.e., they can be printed in a wide variety of

environments).

Install transfig if you need a utility for translating FIG or PIC

figures into certain graphics languages.
