Changelog for
gzip-1.12-119.6.x86_64.rpm :
* Sat Apr 09 2022 Dirk Müller
- update to 1.12 (CVE-2022-1271,bsc#1198062):
* \'gzip -l\' no longer misreports file lengths 4 GiB and larger. Previously, \'gzip -l\' output the 32-bit value stored in the gzip header even though that is the uncompressed length modulo 2
*
*32. Now, \'gzip -l\' calculates the uncompressed length by decompressing the data and counting the resulting bytes. Although this can take much more time, nowadays the correctness pros seem to outweigh the performance cons.
* \'zless\' is no longer installed on platforms lacking \'less\'.
* zgrep applied to a crafted file name with two or more newlines can no longer overwrite an arbitrary, attacker-selected file. [bug introduced in gzip-1.3.10]
* zgrep now names input file on error instead of mislabeling it as \"(standard input)\", if grep supports the GNU -H and --label options.
* \'zdiff -C 5\' no longer misbehaves by treating \'5\' as a file name.
* Configure-time options like --program-prefix now work.- refresh zdiff.diff, zgrep.diff, zmore.diff
* Sun Jan 30 2022 Dirk Müller - add conflicts/provides for alternative(gzip)- modernize spec file
* Thu Sep 09 2021 Danilo Spinella - Update to 1.11:
* Performance improvements
* Added hardware acceleration for IBM Z- Refresh patches:
* manpage-no-date.patch
* xz_lzma.patch- Remove upstreamed patches:
* gzip-1.10-fix-DFLTCC-segfault.patch
* gzip-1.10-fix_count_of_lines_to_skip.patch
* gzip-1.10-ibm_dfltcc_support.patch
* Wed Jun 23 2021 Franck Bui - Avoid text relocation on i386 (bsc#1143125) Text relocation doesn\'t cope well with some security hardening which consists in prohibiting attempts to change memory mappings to become executable. Hence disable the use of assembler code and get rid of text relocations especially since the assembler code is slower than the code generated by gcc according to Fedora. According to Debian this also fixes gzip generating different results on ia64.
* Tue Apr 13 2021 pgajdosAATTsuse.com- fix DFLTCC segfault [bsc#1177047]- added patches fix https://git.savannah.gnu.org/cgit/gzip.git/commit/?id=be0a534ba2b6e77da289de8da79e70843b1028cc + gzip-1.10-fix-DFLTCC-segfault.patch
* Thu Mar 04 2021 Kristyna Streitova - gzip.spec: move %patch10 from the ifarch condition (mistake)
* Wed Jan 27 2021 Kristyna Streitova - add gzip-1.10-fix_count_of_lines_to_skip.patch to fix count of lines to skip [bsc#1180713]
* Fri Oct 16 2020 Ludwig Nussel - prepare usrmerge (boo#1029961)
* Wed Sep 02 2020 Kristyna Streitova - Enable DFLTCC compression for s390x for levels 1-6 (i. e. to make it used by default) by adding -DDFLTCC_LEVEL_MASK=0x7e to CLFAGS. [jsc#SLE-13775]
* Tue Aug 27 2019 Kristyna Streitova - refresh gzip-1.10-ibm_dfltcc_support.patch to fix three data corruption issues [bsc#1145276] [jsc#SLE-5818] [jsc#SLE-8914]
* Thu Jun 06 2019 Kristýna Streitová - add gzip-1.10-ibm_dfltcc_support.patch [jsc#SLE-5818] [jsc#SLE-8914]
* it adds support for DFLTCC (hardware-accelerated deflation) for s390x arch
* enable it via \"--enable-dfltcc\" option
* Sun Dec 30 2018 astiegerAATTsuse.com- gzip 1.10:
* Compressed gzip output no longer contains the current time as a timestamp when the input is not a regular file. Instead, the output contains a null (zero) timestamp. This makes gzip\'s behavior more reproducible when used as part of a pipeline.
* A use of uninitialized memory on some malformed inputs has been fixed.
* A few theoretical race conditions in signal handers have been fixed.- drop upstreamed patches:
* gnulib-libio.patch
* gzip-1.8-deprecate_netstat.patch
* Wed Aug 01 2018 schwabAATTsuse.de- gnulib-libio.patch: Update gnulib for libio.h removal
* Thu Feb 22 2018 fvogtAATTsuse.com- Use %license (boo#1082318)
* Fri Jan 12 2018 meissnerAATTsuse.com- license is GPL-3.0+
* Thu Jan 11 2018 kbabiochAATTsuse.com- Update to 1.9
* Fix suffix handling
* Fix bug when handling pack format while decompressing
* Fix time handling bug
* Improve exit code handling for shell scripts- remove gzip-1.8-fix_unpack_EOB_check.patch as it is included upstream now- refresh manpage-no-date.patch- spec file cleanups
* Tue Jan 02 2018 kstreitovaAATTsuse.com- add gzip-1.8-deprecate_netstat.patch to get rid of deprecated \'netstat -n\' command in tests/init.sh script
