Comment 13 Kristyna Streitova 2019-07-24 16:14:06 UTC

As Federico mentioned in comment 6, bzip2 upstream eventually addressed the bzip2 and (buggy) lbzip2 incompatibility in this patch:

https://gitlab.com/federicomenaquintero/bzip2/commit/812a898b7622de90e98f103ff7fed0984e4548e4

It fixes CVE-2019-12900 security issue in a little bit different way that also fixes lbzip2 incompatibility.

I updated the initial patch for CVE-2019-12900 and submitted again for all of our affected codestreams. For openSUSE:Factory it was fixed within the 1.0.8 version update.
