Description David Walser 2015-12-10 17:06:50 CET
Fedora has issued an advisory on December 9:
https://lists.fedoraproject.org/pipermail/package-announce/2015-December/173515.html

I'm not sure how important any of these fixes are or if we should update the Mageia 5 package as well, I'll leave that to the maintainer to evaluate.  The Cauldron package should be updated at the very least.

Reproducible:
