Red Hat Linux 7.0 RHSA-2001:042-02 Critical: Pine Temp File Issue

red hat
Calendar Grey April 10, 2001
Dist Redhat Esm H88
New enhancements in pine packages for Red Hat rectify vulnerabilities tied to temporary file management within email and text editing software effectively.
These new updated packages fix temporary file creation issuesin the pine mail client and the pico text editor that comes with pine.

Solution

To update all RPMs for your particular architecture, run:

rpm -Fvh [filenames]

where [filenames] is a list of the RPMs you wish to upgrade. Only those RPMs which are currently installed will be updated. Those RPMs which are not installed but included in the list will not be updated. Note that you can also use wildcards (*.rpm) if your current directly *only* contains the desired RPMs.

Please note that this update is also available via Red Hat Network. Many people find this an easier way to apply updates. To use Red Hat Network, launch the Red Hat Update Agent with the following command:

up2date

This will start an interactive process that will result in the appropriate RPMs being upgraded on your system.
