Use the following template to for the 'fedpkg update' request to submit an update for this issue as it contains the top-level parent bug(s) as well as this tracking bug. This will ensure that all associated bugs get updated when new packages are pushed to stable. ===== # bugfix, security, enhancement, newpackage (required) type=security # testing, stable request=testing # Bug numbers: 1234,9876 bugs=1193451,1193454 # Description of your update notes=Security fix for # Enable request automation based on the stable/unstable karma thresholds autokarma=True stable_karma=3 unstable_karma=-3 # Automatically close bugs when this marked as stable close_bugs=True # Suggest that users restart after update suggest_reboot=False ====== Additionally, you may opt to use the bodhi update submission link instead: https://admin.fedoraproject.org/updates/new/?type_=security&bugs=1193451,1193454 Solly, do you want to take this as an exercise and push novnc 0.5.1 update in EPEL6/7 ? It is updated in Rawhide so git merge should do. Are there any backward compatibility issues? > Solly, do you want to take this as an exercise and push novnc 0.5.1 update in EPEL6/7 ?

The only potential issue would be the removal of two deprecated callback names (the underlying callbacks still exist, just the deprecated names for them were removed). This would only affect people who had written a custom UI around the core noVNC javascript files (most users seem to just use onee of the two built-in HTML files), and were using the deprecated callbacks. Note that those callback names had been deprecated for several versions before 0.4 (quite a long time) IMO fixing security issue trumps two (since 2012) deprecated callback names but let's spell them out in the Bodhi update description. In upstream 0.5 relnotes I see only this which looks related: "NOTE: code which interfaces directly with noVNC may see minor breakage (e.g. custom UI elements, etc)." novnc-0.5.1-2.el7 has been submitted as an update for Fedora EPEL 7. https://admin.fedoraproject.org/updates/novnc-0.5.1-2.el7 novnc-0.5.1-2.el6 has been submitted as an update for Fedora EPEL 6. https://admin.fedoraproject.org/updates/novnc-0.5.1-2.el6 Package novnc-0.5.1-2.el6: * should fix your issue, * was pushed to the Fedora EPEL 6 testing repository, * should be available at your local mirror within two days.
