Comment 1 Stig-Ørjan Smelror 2024-05-09 15:38:45 CEST
We're running a nightly version, so this is invalid.

Status: NEW => RESOLVED
Resolution: (none) => INVALID

Comment 2 sturmvogel 2024-05-09 18:00:09 CEST
The "nightly version" used in MGA9 and cauldron is from the year 2020! As the upstream source stays unclear if the nightly build from 2020 is also affected (but seems possible, as the fixed stable versions are from 2023 and lower versions are affected), an update to the 2024 nightly build is highly recommended when Mageia cares about security...
Comment 3 David Walser 2024-05-10 06:20:18 CEST
Indeed.  If it's actually unaffected, the explanation provided here is insufficient.

Resolution: INVALID => (none)
Status: RESOLVED => REOPENED

Comment 4 sturmvogel 2024-05-10 15:40:35 CEST
The master branch and nightly build of ViewVC got rolled back to version 1.2.x in March 2020. That means, the nightly build 20200516 which is used in MGA9 and cauldron is well affected by this CVE. Fixed versions are 1.1.30 and 1.2.3 released January 2023.

Thanks for commenting; but I was unsure what you are pointing up: which version, what explanation is insufficient, and in what way. Are you happy with the following comment 4?

All I can see in Caldron is v1.3.0 nightly (4y ago), so the new versions cited are in a different world. There are visible patches since.

In that case, this should be marked as a duplicate to link the bugs.
