Upgrade to 2.2, fixing CVE-2015-9059. --------------------------------------------------------------------------------Fedora Update Notification FEDORA-2017-ac7fc2fd8c 2017-06-11 16:12:43.870326 --------------------------------------------------------------------------------Name : picocom Product : Fedora 25 Version : 2.2 Release : 2.fc25 URL : https://github.com/npat-efault/picocom Summary : Minimal serial communications program Description : As its name suggests, [picocom] is a minimal dumb-terminal emulation program. It is, in principle, very much like minicom, only it's "pico" instead of "mini"! It was designed to serve as a simple, manual, modem configuration, testing, and debugging tool. It has also served (quite well) as a low-tech "terminal-window" to allow operator intervention in PPP connection scripts (something like the ms-windows "open terminal window before / after dialing" feature). It could also prove useful in many other similar tasks. It is ideal for embedded systems since its memory footprint is minimal (less than 20K, when stripped). --------------------------------------------------------------------------------Update Information: Upgrade to 2.2, fixing CVE-2015-9059 --------------------------------------------------------------------------------References: [ 1 ] Bug #1456399 - CVE-2015-9059 picocom: Command injection in the "send and receive file" command [fedora-all] https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1456399 --------------------------------------------------------------------------------This update can be installed with the "dnf" update program.
