Classification: openSUSE Product: openSUSE Distribution Version: 13.2 Hardware: x86-64 OS: openSUSE 13.2 Status: NEW Severity: Critical Priority: P5 - None Component: Upgrade Problems Assignee: bnc-team-screening(a)forge.provo.novell.com Reporter: stakanov(a)freenet.de QA Contact: jsrain(a)suse.com Found By: --- Blocker: --- Created attachment 639432 --> http://bugzilla.opensuse.org/attachment.cgi?id=639432&action=edit last yast2log Trying to update a 13.2 fresh install to tumbleweed. The first error I was able to capture was: undefined method split for it_IT:Array caller /usr/lib64/addr ruby/2.20/yast/builtimg.rb:455:in "splitsting" Then there comes a second error and it all aborts anyway. The installer calls for bugreport and requests yast2logs. Well, I attach you all I have. Interrupting the installation gives a normal 13.2 system. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are on the CC list for the bug.

But zypper try to install another one, but I don't want it, and there is no option for skipping new install. Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: $> sudo zypper remove firefox Actual Results: root's password: Loading repository data... Reading installed packages... 'firefox' not found in package names. Trying capabilities. Resolving package dependencies... The following NEW package is going to be installed: MozillaThunderbird The following application is going to be REMOVED: Firefox The following package is going to be REMOVED: MozillaFirefox 1 new package to install, 1 to remove.

[y/n/p/? shows all options] (y):` an option for remove only. It may be used `ro` option for remove only, and there should be information what it means. This actually is an usability bug. You may found tricks over the web that people do for that. That's totally not good and makes SUSE to loose points in usability versus other OSes. BTW: is not meaningful to use `p` for restart whatever it is. It make sense to put option with 2 or 3 chars that will make action intuitive to remember and use. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are on the CC list for the bug.

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. Every time apper wants to make changes to the O/S 100% reproducable 2. 3. 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.

[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.
