3. Description:

 

YAML is a data serialization format designed for human readability and

interaction with scripting languages. LibYAML is a YAML parser and emitter

written in C.

 

An assertion failure was found in the way the libyaml library parsed

wrapped strings. An attacker able to load specially crafted YAML input into

an application using libyaml could cause the application to crash.

(CVE-2014-9130)

 

All libyaml users are advised to upgrade to these updated packages, which

contain a backported patch to correct this issue. All running applications

linked against the libyaml library must be restarted for this update to

take effect.

 

4. 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
