Synopsis

The remote Oracle Linux host is missing one or more security updates.

Description

The remote Oracle Linux 7 host has packages installed that are affected by multiple vulnerabilities as referenced in the ELSA-2016-0049 advisory.

 [1:1.8.0.71-2.b15]
 - Add md5sum for previous java.security file so it gets updated.
 - Resolves: rhbz#1295753

 [1:1.8.0.71-1.b15]
 - Restore upstream version of system LCMS patch removed by 'sync with Fedora'
 - Add patch to turn off strict overflow on IndicRearrangementProcessor{,2}.cpp
 - Resolves: rhbz#1295753

 [1:1.8.0.71-0.b15]
 - January 2016 security update to u71b15.
 - Improve verbosity and helpfulness of tarball generation script.
 - Remove RH1290936 workaround as RHEL does not have the hardened flags nor ARM32.
 - Update patch documentation using version originally written for Fedora.
 - Drop prelink requirement as we no longer use execstack.
 - Drop ifdefbugfix patch as this is fixed upstream.
 - Provide optional boostrap build and turn it off by default.
 - Turn off additional CFLAGS/LDFLAGS on AArch64 as bootstrapping failed.
 - Add patch for size_t formatting on s390 as size_t != intptr_t there.
 - Resolves: rhbz#1295753

 [1:1.8.0.65-4.b17]
 - moved to integration forest
 - sync with fedora (all but extracted luas and family)
 - Resolves: rhbz#1295753
