OmniOS Community Edition has updated the bzip2 Package for r151022 and bloody to fix CVE-2016-3189 



A remote user can create a specially crafted bzip2 file that, when processed for recovery by the target application, will trigger a use-after-free memory error in bzip2recover and cause the target application to crash. 



This release does NOT require a reboot.
