Updated Eye of GNOME packages fix vulnerability

Updated eog packages that fix a security vulnerability are now available.

Eye of GNOME (EOG) is a component for the GNOME desktop used by various Red
Hat Linux packages for displaying images.

A vulnerability was found in EOG version 2.2.0 and earlier. A carefully
crafted filename passed to the program could lead to the execution of
arbitrary code. An attacker could exploit this because various packages
(Mutt, for example) make use of EOG for image viewing.

All users are advised to upgrade to these erratum packages which contain a
backported patch correcting this issue.

Before applying this update, make sure all previously released errata
relevant to your system have been applied.

To update all RPMs for your particular architecture, run:

rpm -Fvh [filenames]

where [filenames] is a list of the RPMs you wish to upgrade. Only those
RPMs which are currently installed will be updated. Those RPMs which are
not installed but included in the list will not be updated. Note that you
can also use wildcards (*.rpm) if your current directory *only* contains the
desired RPMs.

Please note that this update is also available via Red Hat Network. Many
people find this an easier way to apply updates. To use Red Hat Network,
launch the Red Hat Update Agent with the following command:

up2date

This will start an interactive process that will result in the appropriate
RPMs being upgraded on your system.
