These issues affect the versions of the libotr package, as shipped with Fedora release of 16 and 17. Please schedule an update. -- These issues affect the versions of the libotr package, as shipped with Fedora EPEL 5 and 6. Please schedule an update. Created libotr tracking bugs for this issue Affects: fedora-all [bug 846380] Affects: epel-all [bug 846381] I'm talking with upstream. They only released a patch, which also increases the version number of the release, without releasing a tar ball. I'm trying to convince them to do a proper tar ball release. bodhi didn't update bugzilla, but Fedora builds have been made. EL builds will follow soon. https://admin.fedoraproject.org/updates/libotr-3.2.0-7.fc16 https://admin.fedoraproject.org/updates/libotr-3.2.0-8.fc17 The CVE identifier of CVE-2012-3461 has been assigned to these issues: http://www.openwall.com/lists/oss-security/2012/08/08/3 (In reply to comment #4) > bodhi didn't update bugzilla, but Fedora builds have been made.

If problems still persist, please make note of it in this bug report. libotr-3.2.1-1.fc16 has been pushed to the Fedora 16 stable repository.
