high Nessus Plugin ID 111419

Language:

Synopsis

The remote openSUSE host is missing a security update.

Description

This update for cinnamon fixes the following issues :

Security issue fixed :

 - CVE-2018-13054: Fix symlink attack vulnerability (boo#1083067).

Bug fixes :

 - Update to version 3.4.6 (changes since 3.4.4) :

 - osdWindow.js: Always check the theme node on first showing - an actor's width isn't necessarily filled if it hasn't been explicitly set, causing the first few activations of the OSD to not show an accurate level bar.

 - cs_default: Fix an incorrect button label (but preserve translations).

 - main.js: Remove an obsolete Meta enum member reference.

 - workspace.js: Use our normal prototype init method.

 - workspace.js: Initalise WindowClone._zoomStep to 0.

 - slideshow-applet: Fix a translation.

 - cs_themes.py: Create the file '~/.icons/default/index.theme' and set the selected cursor theme inside of it. This ensures other (non-gtk) applications end up using the same theme (though they are required to be restarted for these changes to take effect).

 - keyboard-applet: Applet icon vanishes when moved in edit mode.

 - cinnamon-json-makepot: Add keyword option, change language used by xgettext to JavaScript.

 - expoThumbnail: Correct a couple of calls with mismatched argument counts.

 - window-list: Set AppMenuButtons unreactive during panel edit mode.

 - panel-launchers: Set PanelAppLaunchers unreactive during panel edit mode.

 - windows-quick-list: Fix argument warning.

 - Fix a reference to undefined actor._delegate warning.

 - ui/environment: Handle undefined actors in containerClass.prototype.add.

 - ui/cinnamonDBus: Handle null xlet objects in CinnamonDBus.highlightXlet.

 - deskletManager: Initialise some variables and remove the variables that were initialised, probable typo

Solution

Update the affected cinnamon packages.
