openSUSE Security Update: Security update for rxvt-unicode ______________________________________________________________________________ Announcement ID: openSUSE-SU-2022:10222-1 Rating: important References: #1186174 Cross-References: CVE-2008-1142 CVE-2021-33477 CVSS scores: CVE-2021-33477 (NVD) : 8.8 CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:L/PR:L/UI:N/S:U/C:H/I:H/A:H Affected Products: openSUSE Backports SLE-15-SP3 openSUSE Backports SLE-15-SP4 ______________________________________________________________________________ An update that fixes two vulnerabilities is now available. Description: This update for rxvt-unicode fixes the following issues: Update to 9.26 - ev_iouring.c was wrongly required during compilation, and wrongly not packaged. Update to 9.25 (boo#1186174 CVE-2021-33477) - for the 17.5th anniversary, and because many distributions seem to remove rxvt in favour of urxvt, this release resurrects rclock as urclock. - add support for systemd socket-based activation - debian bug #917105, freebsd bug #234276. - do not destruct perl on exit anymore: this might fail for a variety of reasons, and takes unneccessary time. - remove any macros from urxvtperl manpage(s), should fix debian bug 858385. - the old bg image resources are now provided by the background extension, and perl is thus required for bg image support. No configuration change is needed: urxvt autoloads the background ext if any bg image resource/option is present (for OSC sequences to work you need to enable it explicity). The old bg image resources are also now deprecated; users are encouraged to switch to the new bg image interface (see man urxvt-background). - confirm-paste now checks for any ctlchars, not just newlines. - searchable scrollback will now ignore bracketed paste mode sequences (prompted by Daniel Gr��ber's patch). - drop ISO 2022 locale support. ISO 2022 encodings are not supported in POSIX locales and clash with vt100 charset emulation (the luit program can be used as a substitute). - perl didn't parse rgba colours specified as an array correctly, only allowing 0 and 100% intensity for each component (this affected fill and tint). - when iterating over resources, urxvt will now try to properly handle multipart resources (such as "*background.expr"), for the benefit of autoloading perl extensions. - ESC G (query rxvt graphics mode) has been disabled due to security implications. The rxvt graphics mode was removed in rxvt-unicode 1.5, and no programs relying on being able to query the mode are known. - work around API change breakage in perl 5.28, based on a patch by Roman Bogorodskiy. - improved security: rob nation's (obsolete) graphics mode queries no longer reply with linefeed in secure/default mode. - ISO 8613-3 direct colour SGR sequences (patch by Fengguang Wu). - xterm focus reporting mode (patch by Daniel Hahler). - xterm SGR mouse mode. - implement DECRQM. Patch by P��emysl Eric Janouch. - add missing color index parameter to OSC 4 response. Patch by P��emysl Eric Janouch. - in some window managers, if smart resize was enabled, urxvt erroneously moved the window on font change - awesome bug #532, arch linux bug ##34807 (patch by Uli Schlachter). - fix urxvtd crash when using a background expression. - properly restore colors when using fading and reverse video is enabled while urxvt is focused and then disabled while it is not focused, or vice versa (patch by Daniel Hahler). - fix high memory usage when an extension repeatedly hides and shows an overlay (reported by Marcel Lautenbach). - expose priv_modes member and constants to perl extensions (patch by Rastislav Barlik). - fix a whole slew of const sillyness, unfortunately forced upon us by ISO C++. - update to libecb 0x00010006. - disable all thread support in ecb.h as we presumably don't need it. - slightly improve Makefile source dependencies. - work around bugs in newer Pod::Xhtml versions (flags incorrect formatting codes in xhtml/html sections but does not interpret correct ones). - New file: /usr/bin/urclock - restore the -256color binaries Patch Instructions: To install this openSUSE Security Update use the SUSE recommended installation methods like YaST online_update or "zypper patch".
