Created attachment 572 [details]
minimal fix for crash
patch attached, I have some small cleanups locally but AFAIK they're not essential: license tag fix, README.mageia vs mandriva, better patch for Makefile.in

stewbintn QA request: vde2-2.2.2-5.1.mga1 (+library) suggested procedure to test the bugfix: 1. in a terminal, run slirpvde and check if it aborts as described in this bugreport 2. update using the packages in updates_testing 3. run slirpvde again and check that it now gives an error message: "slirpvde: Could not connect to the VDE switch at '(null)': No such file or directory" Assignee:

qa-bugs I've tested the i586 version in a Mageia 1 kde clean installation, and confirm that before installing the update, it terminated with a buffer overflow, while after installing the update it generates the "Could not connect" message. CC:

davidwhodgins Yep comfirme too on a X86_64 version, first the overflow then slirpvde: Could not connect to the VDE switch at '(null)': No such file or directory Can someone on the sysadmin team push the packages vde2 libvde-devel libvde2 from Core Updates Testing to Core Updates please. Do you have an advisory text for this update, and maybe some cve numbers ? CC:
(none) =>
boklm This is a simple bugfix not a security issue, so no cve numbers or advisory text. Update description: The slirpvde utility from the vde2 package in Mageia 1 contains a bug that triggers a runtime security check and aborts execution of the program. This update fixes that "crash". Packages pushed to updates. Status:
ASSIGNED =>
RESOLVED
