RHBA-2013:1047 - sblim-wbemcli bug fix update


Synopsis

sblim-wbemcli bug fix update

Type/Severity

Bug Fix Advisory

Topic

Updated sblim-wbemcli packages that fix two bugs are now available for Red Hat Enterprise Linux 6.

Description

WBEM (Web-Based Enterprise Management) CLI is a standalone, command-line WBEM client. It can be used in scripts for basic system management tasks.

This update fixes the following bugs:

  • Previously, the spec file of the sblim-wbemcli package contained a requirement for the tog-pegasus CIM server, which could cause problems. This update amends the spec file and top-pegasus is no longer required when installing sblim-wbemcli. (BZ#745264)

  • Due to incorrect usage of the curl API in the code, when the wbemcli utility was called with an HTTPS scheme, wbemcli terminated unexpectedly with a segmentation fault. With this update, the curl API is used properly and wbemcli no longer crashes in the described scenario. (BZ#868905)

Users of sblim-wbemcli are advised to upgrade to these updated packages, which fix these bugs.

Solution

Before applying this update, make sure all previously-released errata relevant to your system have been applied.

This update is available via the Red Hat Network. Details on how to use the Red Hat Network to apply this update are available at https://access.redhat.com/site/articles/11258
