Fedora Core 3: FEDORA-2005-367 Moderate: Htdig Unescaped Output Fix

fedora
Calendar Grey April 19, 2005
Dist Fedora Esm H88
The htdig package on Fedora Core 3 has been updated to address a security vulnerability related to unescaped output found in both htsearch and qtest components.
Updated package.

Summary

The ht://Dig system is a complete world wide web indexing and searching

system for a small domain or intranet. This system is not meant to replace

the need for powerful internet-wide search systems like Lycos, Infoseek,

Webcrawler and AltaVista. Instead it is meant to cover the search needs for

a single company, campus, or even a particular sub section of a web site. As

opposed to some WAIS-based or web-server based search engines, ht://Dig can

span several web servers at a site. The type of these different web servers

doesn't matter as long as they understand the HTTP 1.0 protocol.

ht://Dig is also used by KDE to search KDE's HTML documentation.

ht://Dig was developed at San Diego State University as a way to search the

various web servers on the campus network.

- Fixed security bug with unescaped output in htsearch and qtest (#144127)

- Removed .la and .a libs from package (#145649)
