Basically you can use this program to extract files from an ISO, add files to an ISO, and create bootable ISOs - all in a graphical user interface. It can open ISO, NRG, and some MDF files but can only save as ISO. ISO Master is based on bkisofs - a library for reading, modifying and writing ISO images. Christian Franke </pre> Christian Franke 2012-05-23T20:14:49 http://comments.gmane.org/gmane.os.cygwin.announce/4106 <pre>A new upstream version of Subversion has been released. CYGWIN NEWS: ============ A new subversion-gnome package is included. (Thanks to Yaakov Selkowitz for the suggestion and patch.) It contains the plug-in necessary to get the GNOME keyring authentication provider working, although this is optional. Windows Crypto API support is still available and part of the regular subversion package. The 1.7.5-2 subversion packages are TEST packages built against the TEST perl-5.14.2 packages. NEWS: ===== See CHANGES (URL below) for more information about the differences between 1.7.5 and previous Subversion releases. IMPORTANT: Please read the release notes (URL below) before upgrading from a previous major release. 1.7 includes a new working copy format with a manual upgrade operation. This will render your working copy unusable with previous major releases. Furthermore, there are some issues trying to upgrade corrupt working copies. Please see the release notes http://subversion.apache.org/docs/release-note</pre> David Rothenberger 2012-05-22T19:17:57 http://comments.gmane.org/gmane.os.cygwin.announce/4104 <pre>The following packages have been updated for the Cygwin distribution: *** apache2-2.2.22-3 *** apache2-devel-2.2.22-3 *** apache2-manual-2.2.22-3 The Apache HTTP Server is a robust, commercial-grade, featureful, extensible, and freely-available source code implementation of an HTTP (Web) server.

It derives from the old Numeric code base and can be used as a replacement for Numeric. It also adds the features introduced by numarray and can be used to replace numarray. This is an update to the latest upstream release. </pre> Yaakov (Cygwin/X 2012-05-22T22:25:20 http://comments.gmane.org/gmane.os.cygwin.announce/4102 <pre>The following packages have been updated for the Cygwin distribution: *** audiofile-0.3.4-1 *** libaudiofile1-0.3.4-1 *** libaudiofile-devel-0.3.4-1 The Audio File Library provides a uniform programming interface for processing of audio data to and from audio files of many common formats (currently AIFF, AIFF-C, WAVE, NeXT/Sun .snd/.au, IRCAM, AVR, Amiga IFF/8SVX, and NIST SPHERE). This is an update to the latest upstream release. The ABI version was bumped, and all current packages which depend on libaudiofile have been rebuilt accordingly. </pre> Yaakov (Cygwin/X 2012-05-22T22:22:41 http://comments.gmane.org/gmane.os.cygwin.announce/4101 <pre>The following packages have been updated for the Cygwin distribution: *** pcre-8.30-1 *** libpcre1-8.30-1 *** libpcre16_0-8.30-1 *** libpcrecpp0-8.30-1 *** libpcreposix0-8.30-1 *** libpcre-devel-8.30-1 The PCRE library implements regular expression pattern matching using the same syntax and semantics as Perl. This release includes the following notable changes: * Some deprecated functions have been removed from libpcre, whose ABI version was changed accordingly. * A UTF-16 version of the PCRE API is now provided by libpcre16. </pre> Yaakov (Cygwin/X 2012-05-22T22:19:58 http://comments.gmane.org/gmane.os.cygwin.announce/4100 <pre>Version 1.5-1 of "nmh" has been uploaded. nmh is a capable mail handling system with a command line interface. It consists of simple, single-purpose programs for sending, receiving, saving, retrieving, and otherwise manipulating email messages. You can freely intersperse nmh commands with other shell commands or write custom scripts which utilize nmh commands. If you want to use nmh as a true email user agent, you'll want to also install xmh to provide a user interface for it--nmh only has a command line interface. nmh is configured on Cygwin to use less and vim by default but options allow use of more and emacs, respectively. nmh includes a comprehensive set of man pages. "man nmh" is a good starting point. Please submit bug reports to nmh-workers&lt; at &gt;nongnu.org. To update your installation, click on the "Install Cygwin now" link on the http://cygwin.com/ web page. This downloads setup.exe to your system.

DESCRIPTION: ============ SASL is the Simple Authentication and Security Layer, a method for adding authentication support to connection-based protocols. To use SASL, a protocol includes a command for identifying and authenticating a user to a server and for optionally negotiating protection of subsequent protocol interactions. If its use is negotiated, a security layer is inserted between the protocol and the connection. See http://asg.web.cmu.edu/sasl/index.html for more information.

DTLS applications are affected in all versions of OpenSSL. TLS is only affected in OpenSSL 1.0.1 and later. Thanks to Codenomicon for discovering this issue using Fuzz-o-Matic fuzzing as a service testing platform. The fix was developed by Stephen Henson of the OpenSSL core team.
