   An update that solves one vulnerability and has one errata
   is now available.

Description:

   util-linux was updated to fix one security issue.

   This security issue was fixed:
   - CVE-2014-9114: Using crafted block devices (e.g. USB sticks) it was
     possibly to inject code via libblkid. libblkid was fixed to care about
     unsafe chars and possible buffer overflow in cache (bnc#907434)

   This non-security issue was fixed:
   - libblkid: Reset errno in blkid_probe_get_buffer() to prevent failing
     probes (e. g. for exFAT) (bnc#908742).
