RHBA-2013:0467 - nfs-utils-lib bug fix update

Synopsis

nfs-utils-lib bug fix update

Type/Severity

Bug Fix Advisory (none)

Topic

Updated nfs-utils-lib packages that fix one bug are now available for Red Hat Enterprise Linux 6.

Description

The nfs-utils-lib packages provide support libraries that programs in the nfs-utils package require.

This update fixes the following bug:

  • When building the list of local realms, idmapd overwrote the string buffer, which is used to keep that list, every time a new realm was added to the list. As a consequence, the idmapd daemon logged only the last local realm added to the list. This update modifies the source code so the realms are correctly appended to the string buffer and idmapd now logs the complete list of the local realms as expected. Also, buffer size calculation has been corrected. (BZ804812)

Users of nfs-utils-lib are advised to upgrade to these updated packages, which fix this bug.

Solution
