Updated colord packages fix security vulnerability

Publication date: 08 Oct 2022
Modification date: 08 Oct 2022
Type: security
Affected Mageia releases : 8
CVE: CVE-2021-42523

Description

There are two Information Disclosure vulnerabilities in colord, and they
lie in colord/src/cd-device-db.c and colord/src/cd-profile-db.c
separately. They exist because the 'err_msg' of 'sqlite3_exec' is not
releasing after use, while libxml2 emphasizes that the caller needs to
release it. (CVE-2021-42523)
