Fedora 29: ephemeral Security Update
Summary
Browse the Internet in private without leaving a trace of history on your
computer. Ephemeral is a stripped down private browser that's perfect for
avoiding persistent cookies or web trackers. Close the window and all traces
of your browsing are removed from your device.
This update fixes a [bug](https://github.com/mesonbuild/meson/issues/5268) in
the Meson build system which caused binaries and libraries to incorrectly be
marking as requiring an executable stack. This makes them more vulnerable to
security issues, and also can result in errors caused by SELinux denials. This
update also provides rebuilds of all the packages that were built with the buggy
Meson, excepting packages for updates were already pending (in those cases,
those updates have been edited instead).
su -c 'dnf upgrade --advisory FEDORA-2019-27e7b92407' at the command
line. For more information, refer to the dnf documentation available at
https://dnf.readthedocs.io/en/latest/command_ref.html
All packages are signed with the Fedora Project GPG key. More details on the
GPG keys used by the Fedora Project can be found at
