Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. Set up some jobs with at 2. Run atq Actual Results: > atq 1377 Thu May 29 15:04:00 2014 a ms 1387 Thu May 22 21:59:00 2014 a ms 1376 Thu May 29 18:39:00 2014 a ms 1372 Wed May 28 21:32:00 2014 a ms 1 Fri May 23 21:04:00 2014 a ms 1361 Sun May 25 08:04:00 2014 a ms 1373 Thu May 29 09:29:00 2014 a ms 1367 Tue May 27 20:02:00 2014 a ms 4 Fri May 23 22:03:00 2014 a ms 1369 Wed May 28 21:04:00 2014 a ms 7 Sat May 24 19:04:00 2014 a ms 10 Sat May 24 23:03:00 2014 a ms Expected Results: The date format should be ISO 8601 - or there should be a switch to set the date format used. The atq up to 12.3 used ISO 8601, so this is a regression.

[Bug 869116] New: Apper No Longer Requires escalation to root auth to make changes to installing O/S changes

If we wanted to copy MS convention where updates and changes to the O/S....we would use it. This is one of the stand-out security features thats sets our O/S above the rest and to enable these changes without root authority sets a dangerous precedent Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1.

Actual Results: No escalation to root authority is called by apper Expected Results: Changes to O/S should be the privilege of root and no user authority and escalation to root should be called for before we let any application change the O/S With so much log data files I don’t really no what to supply to support this...Please provide details of what audit log files you require to solve. Priority set as this is a direct threat to O/S security and its now broken as previously root auth was always required. Please do not close as DOWNSTREAM OR UPSTREAM..Apper is an integral and non optional inclusion to the packing list of 12.3 and as such the product opensuse is the arbiter and coordinator of Apper -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.

[Bug 848914] New: Publish Information around Partitioning Requirements of Boot Requirements with UEFI BIOS

https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=848914 https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=848914#c0 Summary: Publish Information around Partitioning Requirements of Boot Requirements with UEFI BIOS Classification: openSUSE Product: openSUSE 12.3 Version: Final Platform: x86-64 OS/Version: openSUSE 12.3 Status: NEW Severity: Enhancement Priority: P5 - None Component: Installation AssignedTo: bnc-team-screening(a)forge.provo.novell.com ReportedBy: secure(a)aphofis.com QAContact: jsrain(a)suse.com Found By: --- Blocker: --- User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; Linux x86_64; rv:24.0) Gecko/20100101 Firefox/24.0 If ever we are going to see changed in PC BIOS's it will be in this decade. Current UEFI BIOS's are standard with most all X_64 Motherboards. The UEFI BIOS is a temporary measure to permit backwardly compatible Processors and Motherboards and my enhancement would be to publish partitioning information on screen thats not an option before the partitioning phase of Installation. Current warnings generated by the Partitioner itself do warn of requirements for /boot/uefi with FAT. As there will be many changes to BIOS this decade I think we need a mandatory full screen explanation of partitioning changes that can be written for all coming versions as it will be needed and under that preface every installation from 13.x to anything can all make use of a text screen before the partitioner is displayed on screen as part of every Installation Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. Try to configure a boot partition with an X_64 UEFI BIOS and a warning is generated on the users final acceptance of the chosen partitioning. 2. The warning is too late and there is not sufficient space to provide detailed instructions and the reasoning and its going to get more problematic. Additionally as soon as M.S come out with a new file formation partitioning we will need to spell partitioning out in a clear concise way before the user does anything with the partitioner 3. Expected Results: Its a small and advantages addition to the Install Program to have a text screen available before the partitioning part of our current installation is reached. Currently we only knock back the partitioning with a warning after the partitioner has been used. It needs full explanation before not a single line after. It should be very easy to implement this text screen as the need far outweighs the man hour time factor it would take to implement above. I believe this should be assigned and completed as an urgent undertaking before we ship another version as its benefit now and future is so very important. -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.

[Bug 813340] New: Suspected memory corruption in standard capi20 lib

https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=813340 https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=813340#c0 Summary: Suspected memory corruption in standard capi20 lib Classification: openSUSE Product: openSUSE Factory Version: 13.1 Milestone 0 Platform: x86-64 OS/Version: openSUSE 12.3 Status: NEW Severity: Normal Priority: P5 - None Component: Network AssignedTo: bnc-team-screening(a)forge.provo.novell.com ReportedBy: jan.fengler(a)adviqo.com QAContact: qa-bugs(a)suse.de Found By: --- Blocker: --- User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; Linux x86_64) AppleWebKit/537.31 (KHTML, like Gecko) Chrome/26.0.1410.43 Safari/537.31 The capi20 lib from the i4l-base source-package from http://download.opensuse.org/repositories/home:/kkeil:/ISDN/openSUSE_Factor… (and also Version 3.23-100.1 which is newer) seems to create memory corruption during capi20_put_message sending data_b3_req, because no memory is assigned for the data that is put behind the original message in the function capi_processMessage (capi20.c row 962ff). Unfortunately this seems to be a private function and so i could not easily write a test against the entire lib. Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: I provide an example program that uses a 1:1 copy of the original function. I use capi via JNI from Java and it crashes when freeing memory exactly as the test program does. Actual Results: Memory corruption when freeing the memory used for the data_b3_req-message. Expected Results: No memory corruption, the program should terminate without a problem. The last known working version (from openSuSE 10.3) assigned memory for SND_BUFSIZ bytes and copied the original message to this before copying the data bytes after the message and that worked. I will change the code of the function standardPutMessage to do this to avoid the problem and add a patch to this bug report if it works with the patch. I must admit that i could have overseen something, but unfortunately it seems not so far. -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.

Doing so resulted in the error Bad owner email address: mailman@(unused) The openSUSE Mailman package sets DEFAULT_URL_HOST and DEFAULT_EMAIL_HOST to '(unused)' in Defaults.py, which causes this problem. Please use a default without parenthesis - according to the mail I linked above, this should display the "correct" error message about an invalid list address. Of course it would be even better to have an error message that says DEFAULT_URL_HOST and DEFAULT_EMAIL_HOST need to be set - but that's probably something for upstream. -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.
