Name : daemonize
Product : Fedora 11
Version : 1.5.6
Release : 1.fc11
URL : http://www.clapper.org/software/daemonize/
Summary : Run a command as a Unix daemon
Description :
daemonize runs a command as a Unix daemon. As defined in W. Richard Stevens'
1990 book, Unix Network Programming (Addison-Wesley, 1990), a daemon is "a
process that executes 'in the background' (i.e., without an associated
terminal or login shell) either waiting for some event to occur, or waiting
to perform some specified task on a periodic basis." Upon startup, a typical
daemon program will:
- Close all open file descriptors (especially standard input, standard output
and standard error)
- Change its working directory to the root filesystem, to ensure that it
doesn’t tie up another filesystem and prevent it from being unmounted
- Reset its umask value
- Run in the background (i.e., fork)
- Disassociate from its process group (usually a shell), to insulate itself
from signals (such as HUP) sent to the process group
- Ignore all terminal I/O signals
- Disassociate from the control terminal (and take steps not to reacquire one)
- Handle any SIGCLD signals
Most programs that are designed to be run as daemons do that work for
themselves. However, you’ll occasionally run across one that does not.
When you must run a daemon program that does not properly make itself into a
true Unix daemon, you can use daemonize to force it to run as a true daemon.

Name : drupal-date
Product : Fedora 10
Version : 6.x.2.3
Release : 0.fc10
URL : http://drupal.org/project/date
Summary : This package contains both the Date module and a Date API module
Description :
The Date API is available to be used by other modules and is not dependent
on having CCK installed. The date module is a flexible date/time field
type for the cck content module which requires the CCK content.module and
the Date API module.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Update Information:
* Advisory ID: DRUPAL-SA-CONTRIB-2009-046 * Project: Date (third-party
module) * Version: 6.x * Date: 2009-July-29 * Security risk: Moderately
critical * Exploitable from: Remote * Vulnerability: Cross Site Scripting
-------- DESCRIPTION ---------------------------------------------------------
The Date module provides a date CCK field that can be added to any content
type. The Date Tools module that is bundled with Date module does not properly
escape user input when displaying labels for fields on a content type. A
malicious user with the 'use date tools' permission of the Date Tools sub-
module, or the 'administer content types' permission could attempt a cross site
scripting [1] (XSS) attack when creating a new content type, leading to the
user gaining full administrative access. -------- VERSIONS AFFECTED
--------------------------------------------------- * Date for Drupal 6.x
prior to 6.x-2.3 Drupal core is not affected. If you do not use the
contributed Date module, there is nothing you need to do. -------- SOLUTION
------------------------------------------------------------ Upgrade to the
latest version: * If you use Date for Drupal 6.x upgrade to Date 6.x-2.3 [2]
Note that the 'use date tools' permission has been renamed as 'administer date
tools' to clarify that this is an administrative permission (it allows the
creation of new content types via a wizard form). You will need to re-assign
this permission to any roles that were using it. See also the Date project page
[3]. -------- REPORTED BY
--------------------------------------------------------- Stella Power [4] of
the Drupal Security Team -------- FIXED BY
