-------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Fedora Update Notification FEDORA-2019-d5bd5f0aa4 2019-09-04 20:54:30.297699 -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Name : systemd Product : Fedora 31 Version : 243 Release : 1.fc31 URL : https://www.freedesktop.org/wiki/Software/systemd Summary : System and Service Manager Description : systemd is a system and service manager that runs as PID 1 and starts the rest of the system. It provides aggressive parallelization capabilities, uses socket and D-Bus activation for starting services, offers on-demand starting of daemons, keeps track of processes using Linux control groups, maintains mount and automount points, and implements an elaborate transactional dependency-based service control logic. systemd supports SysV and LSB init scripts and works as a replacement for sysvinit. Other parts of this package are a logging daemon, utilities to control basic system configuration like the hostname, date, locale, maintain a list of logged-in users, system accounts, runtime directories and settings, and daemons to manage simple network configuration, network time synchronization, log forwarding, and name resolution. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Update Information: - Update to latest release - Emission of Session property-changed notifications from logind is fixed (this was breaking the switching of sessions to and from gnome). - Security issue: unprivileged users were allowed to change DNS servers configured in systemd-resolved. Now proper polkit authorization is required (CVE-2019-15718). Switching ttys will work again after reboot. Otherwise, no log out or reboot is required. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- References: [ 1 ] Bug #1748401 - systemd: need freeze exception for F31 beta https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1748401 -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- This update can be installed with the "dnf" update program.
