Fedora Core Advisory: coreutils

Mar 11, 2004, 15:58 (0 Talkback[s])

Fedora Update Notification
FEDORA-2004-092
2004-03-10

Name : coreutils
Version : 5.0
Release : 34.1
Summary : The GNU core utilities: a set of tools commonly used in shell scripts
Description : These are the GNU core utilities. This package is the combination of the old GNU fileutils, sh-utils, and textutils packages.


Update Information:

An updated coreutils package is available fixing an issue in the ls(1) utility, described at:

http://cve.mitre.org/cgi-bin/cvename.cgi?name=3DCAN-2003-0853

Note that this vulnerability affects Internet-facing services which execute ls(1) with user-supplied input, and although wu-ftpd is one such service it is not supplied with Fedora Core 1.
