Description Morgan Leijström 2022-08-25 12:02:17 CEST
Cloned from
Bug 30109 - kicad new security issues CVE-2022-2380[34] and CVE-2022-2394[67]

Per that bug, 6.0.5 already is in core backports testing and got quick test.

Good if it before we release it, can be updated to 6.0.7 which is the current version - or later if available when packager go about it.

It seems they lately release about monthly  https://www.kicad.org/blog/ so maybe a good idea to wait a week to package 6.0.8

Activity can be monitored @ https://groups.google.com/a/kicad.org/g/devlist

I will do a quick test when packaged.

Thank you Jani

kicad-6.0.7-1.mga8 64bit OK

Used drakrpm, selected kicad-6.0.7-1.mga8 and it selected the other kicad packages, and during install it removed old kicad-5.1.12-1.1.mga8.

Clean launch and clean run from terminal.

UI localisation OK.
Help works with local files, launches Firefox.

Performed quick test OK: New project, opened schema, placed components, selected packages and annotated, printed, exported to new PCB, printed.

Plugin manager test OK: Selected, downloaded, plugin works.

IIRC backport do not need advisories
