Description David Walser 2014-04-24 20:04:25 CEST

Fedora has issued an advisory on April 15:
https://lists.fedoraproject.org/pipermail/package-announce/2014-April/132092.html

The issue is fixed upstream in 1.4 (newest version is 1.4.1).

Note that while Mageia 3 and Mageia 4 are affected, it only affects people *building* the package, as the vulnerable script is not a part of the shipped package, so I don't think it's necessary to do an update for stable releases for this; fixing it in Cauldron should be sufficient.

Reproducible:
