RHBA-2014:1622 - pki-core bug fix update

Synopsis

pki-core bug fix update

Type/Severity

Bug Fix Advisory

Topic

Updated pki-core packages that fix one bug are now available for Red Hat Enterprise Linux 6.

Description

Red Hat Certificate System is an enterprise software system designed to manage enterprise public key infrastructure (PKI) deployments. PKI Core contains fundamental packages required by Red Hat Certificate System, which comprise the Certificate Authority (CA) subsystem.

Note: The Certificate Authority component provided by this advisory cannot be used as a standalone server. It is installed and operates as a part of Identity Management (the IPA component) in Red Hat Enterprise Linux.

This update fixes the following bug:

  • Several Java import statements specify wildcard arguments. However, due to the use of "wildcards arguments" in the import statements of the source code contained in the Red Hat Enterprise Linux 6 maintenance branch, a name space collision created the potential for a wrong class to be utilized. As a consequence, the Token Processing System (TPS) rebuild test failed with an error message. This update addresses the bug by supplying the fully named class in all of the contentious areas, and TPS rebuild test no longer fails. (BZ#1146818)

Users of pki-core are advised to upgrade to these updated packages, which fix this bug.

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
