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.

Comment 1 Ramon de C Valle 2012-01-20 07:14:59 UTC 
This is a regression from Bug 705849 in latest version of libarchive package
released via RHSA-2011:1507. The CVE-2011-1777.patch attached to Bug 705849
breaks ISO support. This regression was found by Mageia QA:
https://bugs.mageia.org/show_bug.cgi?id=3941.

The original Security, SecurityTracking, ZStream is Bug 739940.
Comment 2 Tomáš Bžatek 2012-03-26 10:17:52 UTC 
This bugreport only tracks a regression in ISO9660 reader, created by a fix of one of the CVEs in libarchive-2.8.3-3.el6. Other formats are untouched.

Reproduced with Fedora-16-x86_64-Live-Desktop.iso - the old (-3) build fails to list contents of this ISO image, the new build (-4) works fine. Can be reproduced using gvfsd-archive (automatically spawned by Nautilus by opening an ISO archive).
Comment 3 Jiri Pallich 2012-10-09 12:42:41 UTC 
Since this is a parent bug of an issue that has already been released via Z-Stream (e.g. rhel-6.3.z), this bug is going to be CLOSED as CURRENTRELEASE.
