[cbi-announce] SECURITY: cbi-package-config updates

I have just posted cbi-package-config-*-4 for use with Fedora Core 4 and 5. Releases prior to this one contained a security bug that lets unprivileged local users alter the RPM repository configuration. Please upgrade immediately:

<http://www.cs.wisc.edu/cbi/downloads/rpm/fedora-4-i386/RPMS.tools/cbi-package-config-4-4.i386.rpm>
<http://www.cs.wisc.edu/cbi/downloads/rpm/fedora-5-i386/RPMS.tools/cbi-package-config-5-4.i386.rpm>

For additional reassurance, you may want to verify that the upgraded package's files are correct *after* upgrading:

	% su
	# rpm --verify cbi-package-config

I apologize for this inconvenience, and sheepishly point out that this is the first security error to arise in CBI's history.
