https://bugs.freebsd.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=3D217844 Bug ID: 217844 Summary: devel/gvfs Product: Ports & Packages Version: Latest Hardware: Any OS: Any Status: New Severity: Affects Many People Priority: --- Component: Individual Port(s) Assignee: gnome@FreeBSD.org Reporter: jt@ixsystems.com Assignee: gnome@FreeBSD.org Flags: maintainer-feedback?(gnome@FreeBSD.org) Due to the wikileaks dump of Vault7, we know there is a 0-day against HALd.= =20 Since HALd is mostly unused on the linux side, its very unlikely that it wi= ll get patched since most distros are using systemd now. gvfs can build without HAL support. I ran gvfs-lite on linux for quite a w= hile back in the days that I was a linux distro dev. Should we disable hal in gvfs for this reason? I realize that some programs that rely on gvfs with hal will loose some functionality, so it comes down = to the issue of what's more important. Security or Features.=20=20 I personally side with security, but this isn't my port, so it's not my cho= ice to decide. --=20 You are receiving this mail because: You are the assignee for the bug.=
