    Description:


    Multiple security vulnerabilities were reported in RPM
    which could have been exploited via specially crafted RPM
    files to cause a denial of service (application crash) or
    potentially allow attackers to execute arbitrary code.

    Additionally, a non-security issue has been fixed that
    could have caused a division by zero in cycles calculation
    under rare circumstances.
