fedora
Calendar Grey March 21, 2006
Dist Fedora Esm H88
Fedora Core 5 is strengthening its security framework by enhancing wrapper scripts associated with Beagle, addressing vulnerabilities while optimizing functionality.
Some of the wrapper scripts (including beagle-status) looked in the current directory for files with a specific name and ran that instead of the binary in the path

Summary

A general infrastructure for making your data easy to find.

Some of the wrapper scripts (including beagle-status) looked

in the current directory for files with a specific name and

ran that instead of the binary in the path. All such cases

have been fixed in this release.

- Remove more instances of wrapper scripts starting apps in cwd.
