Fedora 31: 2020-d1ce381889 Critical Update for pngcheck

Fix executable hardening (PIC/PIE). --------------------------------------------------------------------------------Fedora Update Notification FEDORA-2020-d1ce381889 2020-11-07 00:22:38.030925 --------------------------------------------------------------------------------Name : pngcheck Product : Fedora 31 Version : 2.3.0 Release : 3.fc31 URL : http://www.libpng.org/pub/png/apps/pngcheck.html Summary : Verifies the integrity of PNG, JNG and MNG files Description : pngcheck verifies the integrity of PNG, JNG and MNG files (by checking the internal 32-bit CRCs [checksums] and decompressing the image data); it can optionally dump almost all of the chunk-level information in the image in human-readable form. For example, it can be used to print the basic statistics about an image (dimensions, bit depth, etc.); to list the color and transparency info in its palette (assuming it has one); or to extract the embedded text annotations. This is a command-line program with batch capabilities. The current release supports all PNG, MNG and JNG chunks, including the newly approved sTER stereo-layout chunk. It correctly reports errors in all but two of the images in Chris Nokleberg's brokensuite-20061204. --------------------------------------------------------------------------------Update Information: Fix executable hardening (PIC/PIE) --------------------------------------------------------------------------------ChangeLog: * Wed Oct 28 2020 Benjamin A. Beasley - 2.3.0-3 - Add _hardened_build macro for EPEL * Wed Oct 28 2020 Benjamin A. Beasley - 2.3.0-2 - Work around Makefile.unx not actually using LDFLAGS; this fixes hardened build (PIE) --------------------------------------------------------------------------------This update can be installed with the "dnf" update program. Use su -c 'dnf upgrade --advisory FEDORA-2020-d1ce381889' at the command line. For more information, refer to the dnf documentation availableat https://dnf.readthedocs.io/en/latest/command_ref.html All packages are signed with the Fedora Project GPG key.
