This update does sanity checking when an application passes in a checksum to verify. Before this release, applications could pass in non-hex values for the checksum, which could cause zchunk to crash. Now non-hex values will be rejected.. --------------------------------------------------------------------------------Fedora Update Notification FEDORA-2018-7d138cfd7b 2018-11-07 02:39:18.191860 --------------------------------------------------------------------------------Name : zchunk Product : Fedora 29 Version : 0.9.14 Release : 1.fc29 URL : https://github.com/zchunk/zchunk Summary : Compressed file format that allows easy deltas Description : zchunk is a compressed file format that splits the file into independent chunks. This allows you to only download the differences when downloading a new version of the file, and also makes zchunk files efficient over rsync. zchunk files are protected with strong checksums to verify that the file you downloaded is in fact the file you wanted. --------------------------------------------------------------------------------Update Information: This update does sanity checking when an application passes in a checksum to verify.

Several security issues were fixed in the kernel.. =========================================================================Ubuntu Security Notice USN-2851-1 December 19, 2015 linux vulnerabilities ========================================================================= A security issue affects these releases of Ubuntu and its derivatives: - Ubuntu 15.10 Summary: Several security issues were fixed in the kernel. Software Description: - linux: Linux kernel Details: Felix Wilhelm discovered a race condition in the Xen paravirtualized drivers which can cause double fetch vulnerabilities. An attacker in the paravirtualized guest could exploit this flaw to cause a denial of service (crash the host) or potentially execute arbitrary code on the host. (CVE-2015-8550) Konrad Rzeszutek Wilk discovered the Xen PCI backend driver does not perform sanity checks on the device's state. An attacker could exploit this flaw to cause a denial of service (NULL dereference) on the host. (CVE-2015-8551) Konrad Rzeszutek Wilk discovered the Xen PCI backend driver does not perform sanity checks on the device's state. An attacker could exploit this flaw to cause a denial of service by flooding the logging system with WARN() messages causing the initial domain to exhaust disk space. (CVE-2015-8552) Jann Horn discovered a ptrace issue with user namespaces in the Linux kernel. The namespace owner could potentially exploit this flaw by ptracing a root owned process entering the user namespace to elevate its privileges and potentially gain access outside of the namespace. (https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/1527374) Update instructions: The problem can be corrected by updating your system to the following package versions: Ubuntu 15.10: linux-image-4.2.0-22-generic 4.2.0-22.27 linux-image-4.2.0-22-generic-lpae 4.2.0-22.27 linux-image-4.2.0-22-lowlatency 4.2.0-22.27 linux-image-4.2.0-22-powerpc-e500mc 4.2.0-22.27 linux-image-4.2.0-22-powerpc-smp 4.2.0-22.27 linux-image-4.2.0-22-powerpc64-emb 4.2.0-22.27 linux-image-4.2.0-22-powerpc64-smp 4.2.0-22.27 After a standard system update you need to reboot your computer to make all the necessary changes. ATTENTION: Due to an unavoidable ABI change the kernel updates have been given a new version number, which requires you to recompile and reinstall all third party kernel modules you might have installed. Unless you manually uninstalled the standard kernel metapackages (e.g. linux-generic, linux-generic-lts-RELEASE, linux-virtual, linux-powerpc), a standard system upgrade will automatically perform this as well.
