This will ensure that all associated bugs get updated when new packages are pushed to stable. ===== # bugfix, security, enhancement, newpackage (required) type=security # low, medium, high, urgent (required) severity=high # testing, stable request=testing # Bug numbers: 1234,9876 bugs=2217798,2217806 # Description of your update notes=Security fix for [PUT CVEs HERE] # 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 web interface to submit updates: https://bodhi.fedoraproject.org/updates/new According to common IT media and the people who found this CVE, the CVSS score is 9.8, i.e., very high. It would be important to get this fixed. @QA: Since there is no news from the assignee, would it be possible to get someone else to jump in? The new hotness already tried a scratch build, see bug #2182090.

That is the scratch build for 10.01.2, and the security bug claimed the bug to be present through that version. Apparantly that is wrong. I have commit rights for gs@fed but do not consider myself a maintainer, so I refrain from from version updates. But upstream has a backport for 10.01.1 so I'll check whether it's just a backport of the fix, or also of the fix to the fix ... This would be good for rawhide+f38. F37 is at gs 9.56, though. 9.55->9.56 was not exactly smooth, and bumping F37 to 10.01.1 would quite something I'm afraid. OK, checked. We have 10.01.0 only in Fedora ... But 10.01.2 is purely a bugfix release, containing a fix for this CVE (and a fix for the fix) and some other bugfixes. So I'll go with this one. PR upcoming. FEDORA-2023-b240ebd9aa has been submitted as an update to Fedora 39. https://bodhi.fedoraproject.org/updates/FEDORA-2023-b240ebd9aa FEDORA-2023-d8a1c3e5e2 has been submitted as an update to Fedora 38. https://bodhi.fedoraproject.org/updates/FEDORA-2023-d8a1c3e5e2 FEDORA-2023-d8a1c3e5e2 has been pushed to the Fedora 38 testing repository.
