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 Yasuhito FUTATSUKI 2015-08-15 07:11:48 UTC 
Description of problem:


Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
bzr-2.1.1-2.el6 (with python-libs-2.6.6-64.el6)

How reproducible:
bzr info lp:mailman/2.1
, etc.

Steps to Reproduce:
1. run bzr to access remote repos with http or https, for example,
    bzr info lp:mailman/2.1

Actual results:
Crash with exception. Last few lines of trace:
  File "/usr/lib64/python2.6/site-packages/bzrlib/transport/http/_urllib2_wrappe
rs.py", line 164, in begin
    httplib.HTTPResponse.begin(self)
  File "/usr/lib64/python2.6/httplib.py", line 404, in begin
    version, status, reason = self._read_status()
  File "/usr/lib64/python2.6/httplib.py", line 360, in _read_status
    line = self.fp.readline(_MAXLINE + 1)
TypeError: readline() takes exactly 1 argument (2 given)

Expected results:
Information about repository is reported.

Repository branch (format: unnamed)
Location:
  shared repository: bzr+ssh://bazaar.launchpad.net/%2Bbranch/mailman/2.1/
  repository branch: bzr+ssh://bazaar.launchpad.net/%2Bbranch/mailman/2.1/
                                                                               
Related branches:
  parent branch: http://bazaar.launchpad.net/~vcs-imports/mailman/2.1/

Additional info:
This is caused by CVE-2013-1752 fix on 2.6.6-62, CVE-2013-1752.patch.
It changes interface for HTTPResponse.fp.readline(). This is just same
as bug reported for bzr 2.2 with Python 2.7, 
   https://bugs.launchpad.net/bzr/+bug/693880

Hi Yasuhito,
thanks for report and investigation. Good job. Supposed patch works as well. It could be fasttrack probably.
Comment 3 Adam Goode 2015-12-09 02:19:59 UTC 
Is there an update to this? It breaks building https://github.com/google/cups-connector from source with "go get".
Comment 4 Petr Stodulka 2015-12-09 09:37:57 UTC 
Hi Adam. Unfortunately not. It seems that bzr will not be updated in rhel-6.8.
