Calendar Grey March 17, 2022
Dist Fedora Esm H88
The recent Annobin patch for Fedora 36 introduces vital security upgrades for Firefox, as well as major gcc updates designed to enhance performance and protect system integrity
This update provides the latest release of Firefox, with many bug fixes including critical security issues

Summary

This package contains the tools needed to annotate binary files created by

compilers, and also the tools needed to examine those annotations.

One of the tools is a plugin for GCC that records information about the

security options that were in effect when the binary was compiled.

Note - the plugin is automatically enabled in gcc builds via flags

provided by the redhat-rpm-macros package.

One of the tools is a plugin for Clang that records information about the

security options that were in effect when the binary was compiled.

One of the tools is a plugin for LLVM that records information about the

security options that were in effect when the binary was compiled.

One of the tools is a security checker which analyses the notes present in

annotated files and reports on any missing security options.

This update provides the latest release of Firefox, with many bug fixes

including critical security issues. It also includes updates to gcc and annobin

which were necessary to build Firefox, with the following fixes: * fix up

promoted SUBREG handling (#2045160, PR rtl-optimization/104839) * fix up check

for asm goto (PR rtl-optimization/104777) * Upstream bugs
