Linuxwacom; Rhea-2009:1384: Enhancement Update; Lksctp-Tools; Rhba-2009:0412: Bug Fix Update - Red Hat ENTERPRISE LINUX 5.4 - TECHNICAL NOTES Manual

libxml is a library for parsing and manipulating XML files. A Document Type Definition (DTD) defines
the legal syntax (and also which elements can be used) for certain types of files, such as XML files.
A stack overflow flaw was found in the way libxml processes the root XML document element
definition in a DTD. A remote attacker could provide a specially-crafted XML file, which once opened
by a local, unsuspecting user, would lead to denial of service (application crash).
Multiple use-after-free flaws were found in the way libxml parses the Notation and Enumeration
attribute types. A remote attacker could provide a specially-crafted XML file, which once opened by a
local, unsuspecting user, would lead to denial of service (application crash).
Users should upgrade to these updated packages, which contain backported patches to resolve these
issues. For Red Hat Enterprise Linux 3, they contain backported patches for the libxml and libxml2
packages. For Red Hat Enterprise Linux 4 and 5, they contain backported patches for the libxml2
packages. The desktop must be restarted (log out, then log back in) for this update to take effect.

1.132.1. RHEA-2009:1384: enhancement update

New linuxwacom packages that provide new features are now available.
The Linux Wacom Project manages the drivers, libraries, and documentation for configuring and
running Wacom tablets under the Linux operating system. It contains diagnostic applications as well
as X.org XInput drivers
These updated packages include the following enhancements:
• serial tablets commonly found in tablet laptops were not recognized as tablets. The udev rules have
been modified to create symbolic links, which adds serial tablet support.
• wacomcpl did not show a specific pointer device in the title bar of a submenu when a tool was
edited. (That is, the title bar showed 'Tool Buttons' rather than 'Stylus Tool Buttons' when the Stylus
tool was selected.) The device is now shown in the submenu title bar so that users can easily see
which device is being edited.
Wacom tablet users who wish to use these features should upgrade to these new packages, which
add the required support.
