Patched package uploaded for Mageia 1.

Comment 1 Dave Hodgins 2012-08-22 03:32:43 CEST
Looking at https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=653900#c1
If I understand correctly

dbus-send --system --print-reply --dest=org.freedesktop.UDisks          \
                   /org/freedesktop/UDisks/devices/sr0                  \
                   org.freedesktop.UDisks.Device.FilesystemMount        \
                   string:'vfat' array:string:''

On a system where the vfat kernel module was not already loaded, should
result in the vfat module getting loaded, but this is not happening,
so I can't recreate the problem.

As I can't recreate the problem, just testing that udisks is working,
by confirming that a cd is mounted when inserted, while running lxde.

Testing complete on Mageia 1 i586.

I'll test Mageia 1 x86-64 shortly.

Testing complete on Mageia 1 x86-64.

Could someone from the sysadmin team push the srpm
udisks-1.0.2-3.1.mga1.src.rpm
from Mageia 1 Core Updates Testing to Core Updates.

Advisory: Updated udisks packages fix security vulnerability:

Sebastian Krahmer reported that the udisks service (via D-BUS) could be
