Description Jonathan Scruggs (RETIRED) gentoo-dev 2015-08-13 20:21:31 UTC
The version in portage is 1.730 from January, but there was a new release in June to version 1.760.

Thanks.

Reproducible: Always

Sorry for the delay...

I did check the install procedure of the new 1.760 version + the required Perl modules + followed most of the changes in the code.... Nothing has changed in terms of Gentoo emerge config/procedure compared to the now existing ebuild (for v1.730)...

So someone please just bump the old =app-admin/webmin-1.730 to =app-admin/webmin-1.760 without any modifications needed....

Of course it is best if the old version 1.730 be removed from portage...


BTW there is a very nice new theme in Webmin version 1.760 - the "Authentic Theme"...
I advice all that use Webmin to switch to it... It still is not the default theme (gray-theme is), so no changes to existing config....

The new bumped =app-admin/webmin-1.760 has been tested on x86 and amd64 and works ok...


Thanks

Thanks @Ian,

but could I ask you to remove the old =app-admin/webmin-1.730 from portage, since it is outdated and in version 1.760 there is a security fix for:

*Fixed a bug that allowed the xmlrpc.cgi script to be used in an XSS attack*

so old versions prior to 1.760 are a security risk...

Thanks
