Comment 2 Fedora End Of Life 2013-12-21 13:56:54 UTC
This message is a reminder that Fedora 18 is nearing its end of life.
Approximately 4 (four) weeks from now Fedora will stop maintaining
and issuing updates for Fedora 18. It is Fedora's policy to close all
bug reports from releases that are no longer maintained. At that time
this bug will be closed as WONTFIX if it remains open with a Fedora 
'version' of '18'.

Package Maintainer: If you wish for this bug to remain open because you
plan to fix it in a currently maintained version, simply change the 'version' 
to a later Fedora version prior to Fedora 18's end of life.

Thank you for reporting this issue and we are sorry that we may not be 
able to fix it before Fedora 18 is end of life. If you would still like 
to see this bug fixed and are able to reproduce it against a later version 
of Fedora, you are encouraged  change the 'version' to a later Fedora 
version prior to Fedora 18's end of life.

Although we aim to fix as many bugs as possible during every release's 
lifetime, sometimes those efforts are overtaken by events. Often a 
more recent Fedora release includes newer upstream software that fixes 
bugs or makes them obsolete.

Comment 3 Vincent Danen 2013-12-24 16:45:02 UTC
I have absolutely no idea if Fedora has a a fixed version of this.  I took a look on the ovirt site and can't find anything related to security so I could look quickly, and the primary bug doesn't indicate which upstream version corrects this.

I'd like to say it's fixed, but I don't know (and the changelog for vdsm doesn't really say much either).

So I'm bumping this.  Please feel free to resolve this bug if it has in fact been fixed in Fedora.  (I suspect it is, but I'm erring on the side of caution)

Comment 4 Vinzenz Feenstra [evilissimo] 2014-02-04 12:25:28 UTC
All versions of VDSM with a higher version than 4.11 have the fix incorporated

Currently the lowest available version is 4.13
