EPEL 7 retirement of findbugs-bcel

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



Hi all,

In July 2021 I retired the FindBugs packages from Fedora:

https://lists.fedoraproject.org/archives/list/devel@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx/thread/YI723NBFFXAOQSRMYIEFAD6CYGX7S6MM/

This included the findbugs-bcel package, which was an old snapshot of
Apache Commons BCEL packaged for use by FindBugs. findbugs-bcel is
still present in EPEL 7, but has just had a CVE bug filed against it:

https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=2142726

Rather than attempt to address this vulnerability, and since FindBugs
was never packaged for EPEL 7, I intend to retire findbugs-bcel from
EPEL 7.

As per the EPEL Package Retirement guidelines
(https://docs.fedoraproject.org/en-US/epel/epel-policy-retirement/),
I'm sending this email to announce my proposal to retire it.

According to repoquery, no other packages depend on findbugs-bcel.

Regards,

Richard
