Description Rudolf Kastl 2005-06-25 23:04:04 UTC 
Description of problem:
scorched3d              x86_64     37.2-1           extras-development   18 M
i have already tested scorched3d-38.1-1.rhfc3.nr on newrpms.sunsite.dk for fc3
and it appears to be working fine.

is there a reason for not updating to the latest upstream release of the game?
Comment 1 Rudolf Kastl 2005-08-19 18:11:58 UTC 
39 is out now ;)
Comment 2 Ville Skyttä 2005-10-09 20:57:15 UTC 
I've prepared a local update to 39.1, but it requires openal to be updated 
first (bug 170175).
Comment 3 Ville Skyttä 2005-11-03 19:29:03 UTC 
Ouch.  http://seclists.org/lists/fulldisclosure/2005/Nov/0079.html 
 
Also, IIRC Debian applies a big CVS patch, so 39.1 doesn't look like a very 
"good" release.  The security issues are present in older versions too, 
though.
Comment 4 Hans de Goede 2006-02-05 08:54:43 UTC 
I've taken ownership of scorched3d and will look into this (as time permits).
Comment 5 Rudolf Kastl 2006-02-08 10:26:46 UTC 
thank you. scorched3d is a very nice game actually. but to be able to play
online you gotta have the newest version else you have trouble to connect to
existing multiplayer servers.
Comment 6 Hans de Goede 2006-02-11 18:57:40 UTC 
I've been rather busy fixing all the security bugs mentioned in comment 3, days
of work literaly :| Anyways I'm glad to report this is all done now. I'll commit
4 different security patch files and a new spec to CVS soon.

I also found 2 additional bugs, resulting in 2 more patches.

Once the new version (39.1) with all the patches is build I'll close this.
Comment 7 Hans de Goede 2006-02-11 18:58:46 UTC 
BTW those 2 extar bugs where once again security bugs. There still is a double
free on exit problem, I'll look at that later.
Comment 8 Hans de Goede 2006-02-11 21:54:32 UTC 
scorched3d-39.1-2 has been built for devel / FC5 which fixes this.
