Name : lyx
Product : Fedora 8
Version : 1.5.5
Release : 1.fc8
URL : http://www.lyx.org/
Summary : WYSIWYM (What You See Is What You Mean) document processor
Description :
LyX is a modern approach to writing documents which breaks with the
obsolete "typewriter paradigm" of most other document preparation
systems.
It is designed for people who want professional quality output
with a minimum of time and effort, without becoming specialists in
typesetting.
The major innovation in LyX is WYSIWYM (What You See Is What You Mean).
That is, the author focuses on content, not on the details of formatting.
This allows for greater productivity, and leaves the final typesetting
to the backends (like LaTeX) that are specifically designed for the task.
With LyX, the author can concentrate on the contents of his writing,
and let the computer take care of the rest.

Name : samba
Product : Fedora 8
Version : 3.0.30
Release : 0.fc8
URL : http://www.samba.org/
Summary : The Samba Suite of programs
Description :
Samba is the suite of programs by which a lot of PC-related machines
share files, printers, and other information (such as lists of
available files and printers). The Windows NT, OS/2, and Linux
operating systems support this natively, and add-on packages can
enable the same thing for DOS, Windows, VMS, UNIX of all kinds, MVS,
and more. This package provides an SMB/CIFS server that can be used to
provide network services to SMB/CIFS clients.
Samba uses NetBIOS over TCP/IP (NetBT) protocols and does NOT
need the NetBEUI (Microsoft Raw NetBIOS frame) protocol.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Update Information:
Fix CVE-2008-1105 A heap-based buffer overflow flaw has been found in the way
Samba clients handle over-sized packets. If a client connected to a malicious
Samba server, it was possible to execute arbitrary code as the Samba client
user. The Samba server can also act as a client to perform some operations
(print notify, domain member vs domain controler ...). This could result in the
server executing the vulnerable client code, resulting in arbitrary code
execution with the permissions of the Samba server.
