Fedora 25: systemd Security Update 2017-29d909f5ec
Summary
systemd is a system and service manager for Linux, compatible with
SysV and LSB init scripts. systemd 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 cgroups, supports snapshotting and restoring of the system
state, maintains mount and automount points and implements an
elaborate transactional dependency-based service control logic.
A fix for an out-of-bounds write in systemd-resolved after a crafted DNS packet
(CVE-2017-9445). No need to reboot or log out.
