I believe there's a mistake in your bug report: it is really 0.12.6 that has been released as a security fix for 0.12.5.

Can you submit a patch to update to 0.12.6 ? Thanks!

Hi Thomas,
Can you check and test it ?
Comment 4 Yann E. MORIN 2015-07-05 14:46:13 UTC
Chris,

Thanks for the patch!

The normal process for submitting patches isa to send them to the list,
like explained in the manual:
    http://buildroot.net/downloads/manual/manual.html#submitting-patches

However, I can already spot some issues with the patch: when you use
git-send-email, use the -C option, so that files that are only renamed
(or moved to another directory) only appear as a git rename, please?

Regards,
Yann E. MORIN.
Comment 5 Thomas Petazzoni 2015-07-05 15:18:13 UTC
Yann: we did a mistake when merging the alternate version stuff for NodeJS. The naming of the option should not be 0_12_5, but just 0_12. Otherwise, everytime we upgrade the minor version of NodeJS, we would need to change the Config.in option name, which isn't good. I did not notice that when applying the patches.
Comment 6 Yann E. MORIN 2015-07-05 17:00:03 UTC
Thomas, 

Yes, probably. And also for 0_10, I guess.

Regards,
Yann E. MORIN.
