+++ This bug was initially created as a clone of Bug #846757 +++ Description of problem: Current version of python-djblets for Fedora-17 contains embedded / own copy of python-feedparser (BUILD/Djblets-0.6.22/djblets/feedview/feedparser.py) code, which is vulnerable to numerous security flaws (CVE-2009-5065, CVE-2011-1156, CVE-2011-1157, and CVE-2011-1158 to mention some of them). Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): python-djblets-0.6.22-1.fc17 Additional info: See https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=684877#c2 and https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=684877#c3 for further details. Particular python-feedparser issues are as follows: 1, CVE-2009-5065 Upstream ticket: http://code.google.com/p/feedparser/issues/detail?id=195 Relevant patch: http://code.google.com/p/feedparser/source/detail?r=336# 2) CVE-2011-1156: Upstream ticket: https://code.google.com/p/feedparser/issues/detail?id=91 Relevant patch: https://code.google.com/p/feedparser/source/detail?r=376# 3) CVE-2011-1157: Upstream ticket: https://code.google.com/p/feedparser/issues/detail?id=254 Relevant patch: https://code.google.com/p/feedparser/source/detail?r=375# 4) CVE-2011-1158: Upstream ticket: https://code.google.com/p/feedparser/issues/detail?id=255 Relevant patch: https://code.google.com/p/feedparser/source/detail?r=374# Since there is a system version of python-feedparser package available in Fedora-17 (python-feedparser-5.1.2-2.fc17), which is not vulnerable to these issues any more (bug #684877), if possible, python-djblets should be instructed to use system version of the python-feedparser package instead of the embedded feedparser.py code (since if another security issue is found in the embedded code, python-djblets would need to be updated too).
