Description Christopher E. Stith 2014-10-27 17:51:36 UTC

Description of problem:
The upstream version of Net::Server provided by the perl-Net-Server RPM in epel-release-6-8.1.noarch is 0.97 while both epel-release-5-4.4.cip and epel-release-7-2.noarch offer Net::Server 2.007 which is roughly 5.5 years newer. 

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
epel-release-6-8.1
perl-Net-Server-0.97-7.el6

How reproducible:
100%


Steps to Reproduce:
1. install perl-Net-Server from EPEL


Actual results:
a Perl module distribution from 2007 is installed

Expected results:
a fairly recent version of the same Perl module distribution should be installed

Additional info:
There is a CVE and associated EPEL bugs against 0.97 (which I'm not entirely sure are addressed by the upstream upgrade). See open issues Bug 920685 and Bug 920683 (https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=920685 and  https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=920683).
