This is a regression from Bug 705849 in latest version of libarchive package released via RHSA-2011:1507. The CVE-2011-1777.patch attached to Bug 705849 breaks ISO support. This regression was found by Mageia QA: https://bugs.mageia.org/show_bug.cgi?id=3941.

Comment 4 Tomáš Bžatek 2012-01-20 17:26:21 UTC

Rising severity/priority as this regression should better be fixed in 6.3
