The global archive directory of these ZIP file have been manipulated to indicate zero file sizes. Archive::Zip produces files of zero length when decompressing this type of ZIP file. This causes AV products that use Archive::ZIP to fail to detect viruses in manipulated ZIP archives. One of these products is amavisd-new. The updated packages are patched to fix this problem. _______________________________________________________________________ References: http://rt.cpan.org/NoAuth/Bug.html?id=8077 ______________________________________________________________________ Updated Packages: Mandrakelinux 10.1: 1b0b561bb9766e70bcfd481e25605617 10.1/RPMS/perl-Archive-Zip-1.14-1.0.101mdk.noarch.rpm c6766a6f3ac0cce36a72e06a1b5f3070 10.1/SRPMS/perl-Archive-Zip-1.14-1.0.101mdk.src.rpm Mandrakelinux 10.1/X86_64: 527e70bd67497e63ce949ac195d8f28b x86_64/10.1/RPMS/perl-Archive-Zip-1.14-1.0.101mdk.noarch.rpm c6766a6f3ac0cce36a72e06a1b5f3070 x86_64/10.1/SRPMS/perl-Archive-Zip-1.14-1.0.101mdk.src.rpm _______________________________________________________________________ To upgrade automatically use MandrakeUpdate or urpmi.
