Details

Updated gnome-vfs2 packages that fixes various bugs are now available.

GNOME VFS is the GNOME virtual file system. It is the foundation of
the Nautilus file manager. It provides a modular architecture and
ships with several modules that implement support for file systems,
http, ftp, and others.

These updated gnome-vfs2 packages provide a fix for the following bug:

* an flaw existed in the code that GNOME VFS uses to perform authentication
on Windows shares via the SMB protocol. This would result in Nautilus
becoming unresponsive on the first or second attempt to browse the Windows
share. The version of GNOME VFS provided with this advisory backports the
smb module from upstream, which correctly handles authentication on Windows
shares and therefore avoids this issue.

All users of gnome-vfs2 are advised to upgrade to these updated packages,
which resolve this issue.
