The following packages have been updated in the Cygwin distribution:
* libpoco-devel-1.7.9p1-1
* libpoco49-1.7.9p1-1
* poco-1.7.9p1-1
* poco-doc-1.7.9p1-1
The POCO C++ Libraries are open source C++ class libraries that
simplify and accelerate the development of network-centric, portable
applications in C++.
This release fixes a security vulnerability where a suitably crafted zip
header could cause Poco::Zip to write to arbitrary file locations. See:
https://github.com/pocoproject/poco/issues/1968
Note that users of the 'Poco::UTF32String' class should compile using
the '-frepo' g++ compiler switch. Details here:
