10MB tarball of /var/lib/rpm
The code paths in rpmlib in the backtrace are converting a blob of data transferred over the wire into a header. Checking that the blob of data can be converted (by verifying digest or signature) are up to the up2date application, not rpmlib. More information regarding up2date's use of rpmlib is necessary to attempt a fix. Thank you for submitting this issue for consideration in Red Hat Enterprise Linux. The release for which you requested us to review is now End of Life. Please See https://access.redhat.com/support/policy/updates/errata/ If you would like Red Hat to re-consider your feature request for an active release, please re-open the request via appropriate support channels and provide additional supporting details about the importance of this issue. |
