Security update for iperf
SUSE-SLE-Micro-Extras-6.0-296
This update for iperf fixes the following issues: Update to 3.18 (bsc#1234705, CVE-2024-53580): * SECURITY NOTE: Thanks to Leonid Krolle Bi.Zone for discovering a JSON type security vulnerability that caused a segmentation fault in the server. (CVE-2024-53580) This has now been fixed. (PR#1810) * UDP packets per second now reports the correct number of packets, by reporting NET_SOFTERROR if there's a EAGAIN/EINTR errno if no data was sent (#1367/PR#1379). * Several segmentation faults related to threading were fixed. One where `pthread_cancel` was called on an improperly initialized thread (#1801), another where threads were being recycled (#1760/PR#1761), and another where threads were improperly handling signals (#1750/PR#1752). * A segmentation fault from calling `freeaddrinfo` with `NULL` was fixed (PR#1755). * Some JSON options were fixed, including checking the size for `json_read` (PR#1709), but the size limit was removed for received server output (PR#1779). * A rcv-timeout error has been fixed. The Nread timeout was hardcoded and timed out before the `--rcv-timeout` option * There is no longer a limit on the omit time period * Fixed an output crash under 32-bit big-endian systems * An issue was fixed where CPU utilization was unexpectedly high during limited baud rate tests. The `--pacing-timer` option was removed, but it is still available in the library * Add SCTP information to `--json` output and fixed compile error when SCTP is not supported (#1731). * `--fq-rate` was changed from a uint to a uint64 to allow pacing above 32G. Not yet tested on big-endian systems - Build with OpenSSL for key based authentication support
