RHEL Engineering is moving the tracking of its product development work on RHEL 6 through RHEL 9 to Red Hat Jira (issues.redhat.com). If you're a Red Hat customer, please continue to file support cases via the Red Hat customer portal. If you're not, please head to the "RHEL project" in Red Hat Jira and file new tickets here. Individual Bugzilla bugs in the statuses "NEW", "ASSIGNED", and "POST" are being migrated throughout September 2023. Bugs of Red Hat partners with an assigned Engineering Partner Manager (EPM) are migrated in late September as per pre-agreed dates. Bugs against components "kernel", "kernel-rt", and "kpatch" are only migrated if still in "NEW" or "ASSIGNED". If you cannot log in to RH Jira, please consult article #7032570. That failing, please send an e-mail to the RH Jira admins at rh-issues@redhat.com to troubleshoot your issue as a user management inquiry. The email creates a ServiceNow ticket with Red Hat. Individual Bugzilla bugs that are migrated will be moved to status "CLOSED", resolution "MIGRATED", and set with "MigratedToJIRA" in "Keywords". The link to the successor Jira issue will be found under "Links", have a little "two-footprint" icon next to it, and direct you to the "RHEL project" in Red Hat Jira (issue links are of type "https://issues.redhat.com/browse/RHEL-XXXX", where "X" is a digit). This same link will be available in a blue banner at the top of the page informing you that that bug has been migrated.

Description of problem:
yum won't work with advisory strings that contain external respin suffix. Respin s sometimes also happen when errata had been already shipped and is live. I currently tested only with RHN classic.
For example on a RHEL6.5 machine I try to list updates for this errata:
https://rhn.redhat.com/errata/RHSA-2014-0127.html
That has advisory name:
RHSA-2014:0127-2
# yum updateinfo list --advisory RHSA-2014:0127-2
Loaded plugins: auto-update-debuginfo, product-id, rhnplugin, security, subscription-manager
This system is not registered to Red Hat Subscription Management. You can use subscription-manager to register.
This system is receiving updates from RHN Classic or RHN Satellite.
Advisory "RHSA-2014:0127-2" not found applicable for this system
updateinfo list done
I have to remove the suffix to make it work:
# yum updateinfo list --advisory RHSA-2014:0127
Loaded plugins: auto-update-debuginfo, product-id, rhnplugin, security, subscription-manager
This system is not registered to Red Hat Subscription Management. You can use subscription-manager to register.
This system is receiving updates from RHN Classic or RHN Satellite.
RHSA-2014:0127 Moderate/Sec. librsvg2-2.26.0-6.el6_5.3.x86_64
updateinfo list done
Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
yum-utils-1.1.30-14.el6
How reproducible:
100%
Steps to Reproduce:
1. Install RHEL
2. Register to RHN
3. Try to list an existing advisory with suffix in the name
Actual results:
No advisory found
Expected results:
Advisory found as without suffix
Additional info:
I will try out with the subscription manager also ...
