For my education, what is this? This bug was fixed three years ago - why do we need an open Bugzilla for it now?

Thank you for information.

The CVE was assigned by Red Hat so we must have a bug to reference in the publication to Mitre's site.

This bug has been fixed long time ago as Petr noted. It was reported against 2.3.0, but all active Fedora/EPEL releases are at 5.7.0 - it's been 3 major releases since this bug.

I'd close this but I can't ಠ_ಠ
