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.
