Description Michal Skrivanek 2017-08-14 13:48:10 UTC
release same package as in 4.1

Comment 3 Sandro Bonazzola 2017-10-13 09:53:34 UTC
Michal, I see OpenStack is shipping novnc-0.6.1 instead of novnc-0.5.1.
0.6.1 is availablein EPEL https://koji.fedoraproject.org/koji/buildinfo?buildID=786270
Do we need it in oVirt / RHV?

I believe we should - it supposed to offer some performance improvements and better display resizing. However, looks like we better use 0.6.2, which has a security fix (see https://github.com/novnc/noVNC/releases )

Moving this back to assigned then, thanks

Comment 6 Michal Skrivanek 2017-10-16 11:34:43 UTC
that is not relevant, we do not use that part.
Compatibility with our oVirt integration is not guaranteed, everytime in the past there was a breakage, so we need to check it first anyway. Then we see if we upgrade or not

Comment 7 Michal Skrivanek 2017-10-16 11:41:41 UTC
for now, this is what we go out with
opened a separate bug 1502652 for update and let's see where it lands

Comment 8 Michal Skrivanek 2017-10-17 11:46:06 UTC
Sandro, lrotenbe noticed that 0.6.2 has been added yesterday into http://cbs.centos.org/repos/virt7-ovirt-42-testing/$basearch/os/
Do you know why? Can it be removed?
It does break the functionality of the current 4.2 testing

0.6.2 has security fixes so it has been built to address the security issue.
Please adapt oVirt to match newer version since we can't keep relying on a version with security issues. See above comments for rationale.

Comment 10 Michal Skrivanek 2017-11-03 14:33:24 UTC
Which security issue? Is it relevant to RHV? It didn't seem to me so.
Once it is relevant the upgrade is going to be treated urgently, otherwise it's just a regular priority tracked in bug 1502652

Comment 11 Liran Rotenberg 2018-02-07 08:50:27 UTC
Verified:
novnc-0.5.1-2.el7.noarch : VNC client using HTML5 (Web Sockets, Canvas) with encryption support
Repo        : rhel-7-server-rhv-4-tools-beta-rpms
