Name        : nodejs
Product     : Fedora EPEL 6
Version     : 0.10.29
Release     : 1.el6
URL         : http://nodejs.org/
Summary     : JavaScript runtime
Description :
Node.js is a platform built on Chrome's JavaScript runtime
for easily building fast, scalable network applications.
Node.js uses an event-driven, non-blocking I/O model that
makes it lightweight and efficient, perfect for data-intensive
real-time applications that run across distributed devices.

Update Information:

2014.06.05, Version 0.10.29 (Stable)

* child_process: do not set args before throwing (Greg Sabia Tucker)

* child_process: spawn() does not throw TypeError (Greg Sabia Tucker)

* constants: export O_NONBLOCK (Fedor Indutny)

* crypto: improve memory usage (Alexis Campailla)

* fs: close file if fstat() fails in readFile() (cjihrig)

* lib: name EventEmitter prototype methods (Ben Noordhuis)

* tls: fix performance issue (Alexis Campailla)

The invalid UTF8 fix has been reverted since this breaks v8 API, which cannot be done in a stable distribution release.  This build of nodejs will behave as if NODE_INVALID_UTF8 was set.  For more information on the implications, see: http://blog.nodejs.org/2014/06/16/openssl-and-breaking-utf-8-change/

Additionally, a minor bug in v8 has been fixed that caused certain integer comparisons to return true when they should have returned false.

Please note that there is no OpenSSL security fixes as part of this update as there were upstream; nodejs in EPEL uses the system OpenSSL library included with RHEL and thus receives security updates as soon as the "openssl" packages on your system are updated.

This update can be installed with the "yum" update programs.  Use
su -c 'yum update nodejs' at the command line.
