Comment 4 Vincent Danen 2010-11-18 17:10:16 UTC

Apple assigned CVE-2010-3808 to this same issue.

Comment 5 Kevin Fenzi 2010-11-18 17:16:45 UTC

We already pushed 1.2.5 to f12/f13... should we close this?
Or figure out somehow if it's fixed in 1.3.6 for f14?

Comment 6 Vincent Danen 2010-11-18 18:15:43 UTC

No, this needs to stay open until it is resolved in Red Hat Enterprise Linux 6.

I also don't know if it is fixed in 1.3.6, but upstream is pretty good with the development branch so I suspect that if it is not fixed yet, it will be soon.

Comment 7 errata-xmlrpc 2011-01-25 17:07:29 UTC

This issue has been addressed in following products:
