--------------------------------------------------------------------- Fedora Update Notification FEDORA-2005-1100 2005-11-28 --------------------------------------------------------------------- Product : Fedora Core 4 Name : cpio Version : 2.6 Release : 9.FC4 Summary : A GNU archiving program. Description : GNU cpio copies files into or out of a cpio or tar archive. Archives are files which contain a collection of other files plus information about them, such as their file name, owner, timestamps, and access permissions. The archive can be another file on the disk, a magnetic tape, or a pipe. GNU cpio supports the following archive formats: binary, old ASCII, new ASCII, crc, HPUX binary, HPUX old ASCII, old tar and POSIX.1 tar. By default, cpio creates binary format archives, so that they are compatible with older cpio programs. When it is extracting files from archives, cpio automatically recognizes which kind of archive it is reading and can read archives created on machines with a different byte-order. Install cpio if you need a program to manage file archives. --------------------------------------------------------------------- * Wed Nov 23 2005 Peter Vrabec <pvrabec@xxxxxxxxxx> 2.6-9.FC4 - write_out_header rewritten to fix buffer overflow(#172669) --------------------------------------------------------------------- This update can be downloaded from: http://download.fedora.redhat.com/pub/fedora/linux/core/updates/4/ ae24585b1946eea7c1bf5f736e44e211 SRPMS/cpio-2.6-9.FC4.src.rpm c428e64ccfbb02a24ddbf10010f1bbfd ppc/cpio-2.6-9.FC4.ppc.rpm f575f9b92e98f0777054930ed774d80c ppc/debug/cpio-debuginfo-2.6-9.FC4.ppc.rpm 5ff5c08a835e9f15d3ac5005fdb42c2e x86_64/cpio-2.6-9.FC4.x86_64.rpm ca80d9fde44a10b6f4930fd09180f333 x86_64/debug/cpio-debuginfo-2.6-9.FC4.x86_64.rpm dffb08fa5d4a89c0ae741e7121ef8402 i386/cpio-2.6-9.FC4.i386.rpm 4e5d85b8eee3090c34f5f89b2b2cfc6c i386/debug/cpio-debuginfo-2.6-9.FC4.i386.rpm This update can also be installed with the Update Agent; you can launch the Update Agent with the 'up2date' command. --------------------------------------------------------------------- -- fedora-announce-list@xxxxxxxxxx https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-announce-list
