--------------------------------------------------------------------- Fedora Test Update Notification FEDORA-2006-601 2006-05-27 --------------------------------------------------------------------- Product : Fedora Core 4 Name : rsync Version : 2.6.8 Release : 1.FC4 Summary : A program for synchronizing files over a network. Description : Rsync uses a reliable algorithm to bring remote and host files into sync very quickly. Rsync is fast because it just sends the differences in the files over the network instead of sending the complete files. Rsync is often used as a very powerful mirroring process or just as a more capable replacement for the rcp command. A technical report which describes the rsync algorithm is included in this package. --------------------------------------------------------------------- * Fri May 26 2006 Jay Fenlason <fenlason@xxxxxxxxxx> 2.6.8-1.FC4 - Upgrade to 2.6.8, which closes bz#190208 CVE-2006-2083 rsync buffer overflow issue by switching from my xattrs patch to the upstream one. This also obsoletes the -address patch. --------------------------------------------------------------------- This update can be downloaded from: http://download.fedora.redhat.com/pub/fedora/linux/core/updates/testing/4/ 50b9683359716dbe2887f6aef98c0cc96bbce54c SRPMS/rsync-2.6.8-1.FC4.src.rpm 9b2011a3b8e5f51a70046243ed446703b8a59b30 ppc/rsync-2.6.8-1.FC4.ppc.rpm fb3ba8217b82a704af9cccff4f1bf3e470e00d0f ppc/debug/rsync-debuginfo-2.6.8-1.FC4.ppc.rpm b7a75a44b1daef04934acfa2c6dd698d3a8c7efe x86_64/rsync-2.6.8-1.FC4.x86_64.rpm 2f5cdadd946928b1de8fd7e642b655334c8ba8ff x86_64/debug/rsync-debuginfo-2.6.8-1.FC4.x86_64.rpm c5de8ded10b0d5e0c2666009fdf2f574e6fcb12b i386/rsync-2.6.8-1.FC4.i386.rpm 275b9d29cd9352d810aff78afb17a87667e33adc i386/debug/rsync-debuginfo-2.6.8-1.FC4.i386.rpm This update can be installed with the 'yum' update program.
