Affected releases: 2


Description:
Updated inkscape package fixes security vulnerability:

An XML eXternal Entity (XXE) flaw was found in the way Inkscape before
0.48.4 performed rasterization of certain SVG images. A remote attacker
could provide a specially-crafted SVG image that, when opened in inkscape
would lead to arbitrary local file disclosure or denial of service
(CVE-2012-5656).


Updated Packages:
inkscape-0.48.4-1.mga2
