Details

Updated cryptsetup-luks packages that fix various bugs are now available.

The cryptsetup-luks packages provide a utility for setting up
encrypted devices using Device Mapper and the dm-crypt target.

This update provides the following bug fixes:

* the utility would crash when a requested key-slot number was greater than
the maximum number of keys. The test for checking if the number supplied is
out of range has now been corrected so that a crash is avoided.

* the utility would crash on the ppc64 platform. These updated packages
include a correction to the utility which stabilizes it on the ppc64 platform.

All users of cryptsetup-luks should upgrade to these updated packages, which
resolve these issues.
