Summary
Red Hat Security Advisory: jasperreports-server-pro security and bug fix update

Notes

Topic
An updated jasperreports-server-pro package that fixes one security issue and various bugs is now available. The Red Hat Security Response Team has rated this update as having moderate security impact. A Common Vulnerability Scoring System (CVSS) base score, which gives a detailed severity rating, is available from the CVE link in the References section.
Details
JasperReports Server is a reporting server. A flaw was found in the way the Apache Xerces2 Java Parser processed the SYSTEM identifier in DTDs. A remote attacker could provide a specially-crafted XML file, which once parsed by an application using the Apache Xerces2 Java Parser, would lead to a denial of service (application hang due to excessive CPU use). (CVE-2009-2625) This update also fixes the following bugs: * Adding a user to any ROLE caused an unexpected exception. (BZ#730712) * Previously, the jasperreports-server-pro RPM spec file contained the "%{dist}" tag on the "Release" line. To comply with the packaging and naming guidelines, the tag has been changed to "%{?dist}" with this update. (BZ#868927) * In some cases reports were opened with an incorrect list of Entity/Entities. (BZ#842687) Note: The jasperreports-server-pro package replaces rhevm-reports-server from Red Hat Enterprise Virtualization Manager 3.0. Users are advised to upgrade to this updated package, which corrects these issues.
