Use the following template to for the 'fedpkg update' request to submit an update for this issue as it contains the top-level parent bug(s) as well as this tracking bug. This will ensure that all associated bugs get updated when new packages are pushed to stable. ===== # bugfix, security, enhancement, newpackage (required) type=security # testing, stable request=testing # Bug numbers: 1234,9876 bugs=1165280,1165856 # Description of your update notes=Security fix for CVE-2014-7850 # Enable request automation based on the stable/unstable karma thresholds autokarma=True stable_karma=3 unstable_karma=-3 # Automatically close bugs when this marked as stable close_bugs=True # Suggest that users restart after update suggest_reboot=False ====== Additionally, you may opt to use the bodhi update submission link instead: https://admin.fedoraproject.org/updates/new/?type_=security&bugs=1165280,1165856 Proposed as a Blocker for 21-final by Fedora user simo using the blocker tracking app because: A XSS Security issue that may allow a user to elevate privileges has been found. We'd like to get it fixed in the GA images. Upstream ticket: https://fedorahosted.org/freeipa/ticket/4742 Fixed upstream master: https://fedorahosted.org/freeipa/changese/bff97e8b2e8d80e75e989b661e873c8e72cd7429 ipa-4-1: https://fedorahosted.org/freeipa/changese/af9fd4dfe2c18e52127480c959c35ad37b566095 Fix fedora version, this one affects Fedora 21 +1 Blocker. This is a serious security issue that affects a release-blocking feature. freeipa-4.1.1-2.fc21 has been submitted as an update for Fedora 21. https://admin.fedoraproject.org/updates/freeipa-4.1.1-2.fc21 Package freeipa-4.1.1-2.fc21: * should fix your issue, * was pushed to the Fedora 21 testing repository, * should be available at your local mirror within two days. Update it with: # su -c 'yum update --enablerepo=updates-testing freeipa-4.1.1-2.fc21' as soon as you are able to. Please go to the following url: https://admin.fedoraproject.org/updates/FEDORA-2014-15601/freeipa-4.1.1-2.fc21 then log in and leave karma (feedback). Discussed at 2014-11-24 blocker review meeting: http://meetbot.fedoraproject.org/fedora-blocker-review/2014-11-24/f21-blocker-review.2014-11-24-17.01.log.txt . The security criterion only covers issues with an impact of 'important' or higher, and this is only 'moderate': https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Fedora_21_Final_Release_Criteria#Security_bugs "The release must contain no known security bugs of 'important' or higher impact according to the Red Hat severity classification scale which cannot be satisfactorily resolved by a package update (e.g. issues during installation)." so it's rejected as a blocker, but it's accepted as a freeze exception issue - obviously a good idea to include the fix at this point. freeipa-4.1.1-2.fc21 has been pushed to the Fedora 21 stable repository. If problems still persist, please make note of it in this bug report. |
