Bugzilla Bug 233652

As usual, bugs in Sun JDK are likely to affect other vendors also due to shared
classes etc, and updatess come after a while after Sun updates. The IBM JDK
1.5.0.8 update I noticed today mentions the following security stuff in
changelog (which you probably can't access without login to IBM site):

asdev-20080626  136205  IZ24898 c       N/A     Sun Security Bulletin 150_16
jsdev-20080613  134284  IZ24844 c       6581221 Sun Security fixes 6450319
6557220 6581221 6607339 6661918
xs2dev-20080613 134284  IZ24844 c       6581221 Sun Security fixes 6450319
6557220 6581221 6607339 6661918

Some of the fix numbers are mentioned in Sun advisories in bug 231337. Not sure
if all apply to IBM and are fixed in this version. Seems IBM didn't release own
advisory yet. I'll at least put the new version in tree and ask for stabling.
There are no updates for slots 1.6 and 1.4 yet.

Thanks for following this up, please cc arches as yo push updates.

Arches please stabilize ibm-jdk-bin and ibm-jre-bin 1.5.0.8. Distfiles as usual
via ssh d.g.o/~caster/tmp

amd64/x86 stable

ppc64 stable

ppc stable for 1.5.0.8

Bah, instead of the other slots they released 1.5.0.8a which has "Sun Security
fix 6332953" which is probably this vuln:
http://sunsolve.sun.com/search/document.do?assetkey=1-66-238965-1

So please stabilize ibm-jdk-bin and ibm-jre-bin 1.5.0.8a. Distfiles as usual.

ppc and ppc64 stable

amd64 stable

x86 stable, all arches done for 1.5

So, IBM finally released alerts (in $URL) and a fixed 1.6 which I'm gonna
update. No 1.4 yet.

ppc/ppc64 please stabilize (other arches don't have any 1.6 stable yet)

dev-java/ibm-jdk-bin-1.6.0.2

distfiles as usual

actually adding arches to CC, sorry...

ppc/ppc64 stable

Please stabilize the finally released 1.4.2.12 (jdk and jre), as usual.

Turns out in bug 240384 that I've used old distfiles for the javacomm optional
stuff in 1.6, so ppc/ppc64 please stabilize also ibm-jdk-bin-1.6.0.2-r1 thanks.

amd64/x86 stable

1.6.0.2-r1 stable on ppc/ppc64.

(In reply to comment #17)
> 1.6.0.2-r1 stable on ppc/ppc64.

Please do also 1.4.2.12 (jdk and jre) see comment 14, sorry for confusion.

whoops.. 1.4.2.12 (jdk and jre) stable on ppc/ppc64, too.

all done except glsa

request filed, thanks caster.

Looks officially obsoleted/additive to bug 252416 now.
