Comment 1 Jan Lieskovsky 2010-03-17 14:15:58 EDT

These issues does NOT affect the current versions
of the transmission package, as shipped with Fedora
release of 11 and 12 (both issues has been already
addressed within transmission-1.92-1.fc12 and 
transmission-1.92-1.fc11 version).

Issue A, does NOT affect the version of the transmission
package, as shipped within EPEL5 repository (transmission-1.34
does NOT provide magnet links functionality / support yet).

Issue B, affects the version of the transmission package,
as shipped within EPEL5 repository (transmission-1.34-1.el5).
Though not complete sure this is a security issue (see [10]
for further details), filed this BZ just not to omit
potential security flaw.

Please fix.

Comment 2 Rahul Sundaram 2010-03-18 10:04:48 EDT

I don't maintain the EPEL branches. I am not sure anybody is.  Fedora branches have already been updated. Should I close this?

Comment 3 Josh Bressers 2010-03-22 15:27:08 EDT

I'm closing this, the EPEL branch doesn't seem to be well maintained, we don't plan on chasing it.
