Summary
Security update for mercurial
Details

This update for mercurial fixes the following issues:

  • CVE-2017-17458: In Mercurial before 4.4.1, it is possible that a specially malformed repository can cause Git subrepositories to run arbitrary code in the form of a .git/hooks/post-update script checked into the repository. Typical use of Mercurial prevents construction of such repositories, but they can be created programmatically. (bsc#1071715):
