  • 1.  New version of zlib

    Posted 2 days ago

    Hello

    My security team is complaining about zlib 1.12.3. As version 1.13.1 is available, they are telling me that 1.12.3 is obsolete.

    So I'd like to know if you could make 1.13.1 available in aix toolbox ?

    Best regards.

    Tof

    Hi 

    I went through the CVE-2023-45853 details and source code where fix is applied.
    This CVE is for minizip tool which we are not compiling and shipping as part of Zlib package , so Zlib update is not urgent if only this CVE is concerned.
    You can inform these details to your security team.

    Thanks
    Ranjit
