AFAICS these are privilege escalations and a have CVE assigned:
https://admin.fedoraproject.org/updates/ocaml-mysql-1.0.4-11.fc12
https://admin.fedoraproject.org/updates/ocaml-postgresql-1.12.3-1.fc12
https://admin.fedoraproject.org/updates/ocaml-camlimages-3.0.1-12.fc12.1
But these are already tagged and the submitter forgot to withdraw the
requests.

Others:
https://admin.fedoraproject.org/updates/perl-Net-OAuth-0.19-1.fc12
https://admin.fedoraproject.org/updates/rt3-3.8.4-6.fc12
this one has no details or comments at all :(

Christoph
