"Insecure temporary file use flaws were found in fence_egenera,
fence_apc, and fence_apc_snmp. A local attacker could use these flaws
to overwrite an arbitrary file writable by the victim running those
utilities via a symbolic link attack. (CVE-2008-4192, CVE-2008-4579)

This update also fixes the following bugs :

  - fence_apc_snmp now waits for five seconds after fencing
    to properly get status. (BZ#494587)

  - The fence_drac5 help output now shows the proper
    commands. (BZ#498870)

  - fence_scsi_test.pl now verifies that sg_persist is in
    the path before running. (BZ#500172)

  - fence_drac5 is now more consistent with other agents and
    uses module_name instead of modulename. (BZ#500546)

  - fence_apc and fence_wti no longer fail with a pexpect
    exception. (BZ#501890, BZ#504589)

  - fence_wti no longer issues a traceback when an option is
    missing. (BZ#508258)

  - fence_sanbox2 is now able to properly obtain the status
    after fencing. (BZ#510279)

  - Fencing no longer fails if fence_wti is used without
    telnet. (BZ#510335)

  - fence_scsi get_scsi_devices no longer hangs with various
    devices. (BZ#545193)

  - fence_ilo no longer fails to reboot with ilo2 firmware
    1.70. (BZ#545682)

  - Fixed an issue with fence_ilo not rebooting in some
    implementations. (BZ#576036)

  - fence_ilo no longer throws exceptions if the user does
    not have power privileges. (BZ#576178)

As well, this update adds the following enhancements :

  - Support has been added for SSH-enabled RSA II fence
    devices. (BZ#476161)

  - The APC fence agent will now work with a non-root
    account. (BZ#491643)"
