Due to debugging code left accidently in the FC3 udev package, SIGCHLD signals are blocked in udev, which prevents getting the proper exit status in udev.rules. This means no cdrom symlinks are created and pam_console does not apply desktop user ownerships to any cdrom devices.

Fedora: libxml2-2.6.15-2 update

Multiple buffer overflow bugs have been found libxml2 versions prior to 2.6.14. If an attacker can trick a user into passing a specially crafted FTP URL or FTP proxy URL to libxml2, it could be possible to execute arbitrary code.
