Fedora 12 lets unprivileged users install packagesFedora 12 lets unprivileged users install packagesPosted Nov 19, 2009 20:45 UTC (Thu) by jgarzik (subscriber, #8364)In reply to: Fedora 12 lets unprivileged users install packages by mebrown Parent article: Fedora 12 lets unprivileged users install packages
It is no theoretical argument to say that secured, multi-user workstations running F11 will upgrade into insecurity, when moving up for F12.
You must (a) be aware of the new F12 PackageKit policy and (b) remove PackageKit after upgrade to avoid this major security hole [from the PoV of a multi-user admin].
How many classrooms, laptops, workstations will even be aware of this, given that this is not mentioned in F12-gold release notes at all?
