Fedora 39: FEDORA-2024-40ee18b2e7 Moderate: Rust Resctl Bench DoS Fix

fedora
Calendar Grey June 2, 2024
Dist Fedora Esm H88
This security bulletin outlines enhancements for rust-resctl-bench that tackle significant vulnerabilities in Fedora 39.
This update contains builds from a mini-mass-rebuild for Rust applications (and some C-style libraries)

Summary

resctl-bench is a collection of whole-system benchmarks to evaluate resource

control and hardware behaviors using realistic simulated workloads.

Comprehensive resource control involves the whole system. Furthermore, testing

resource control end-to-end requires scenarios involving realistic workloads

and monitoring their interactions. The combination makes benchmarking resource

control challenging and error-prone. It's easy to slip up on a configuration

and testing with real workloads can be tedious and unreliable.

resctl-bench encapsulates the whole process so that resource control benchmarks

can be performed easily and reliably. It verifies and updates system

configurations, reproduces resource contention scenarios with a realistic

latency-sensitive workload simulator and other secondary workloads, analyzes

the resulting system and workload behaviors, and generates easily

understandable reports.

Update Information:

This update contains builds from a mini-mass-rebuild for Rust applications (and some C-style libraries). Rebuilding with the Rust 1.78 toolchain should fix incomplete debug information for the Rust standard library (and the resulting low-quality stack traces). Additionally, builds will have picked up fixes for some minor low-priority security and / or safety fixes in crate dependencies that had not yet been handled via a separate (targeted) rebuild: h2 v0.3.26+ (denial-of-service): https://rustsec.org/advisories/RUSTSEC-2024-0332.html glib v0.19.4+ and backports (UB): core/pull/1343 hashbrown v0.14.5+ (UB): https://github.com/rust-lang/hashbrown/pull/511 rustls v0.22.4+, v0.21.11+ (denial-of-service): https://rustsec.org/advisories/RUSTSEC-2024-0336.html

Change Log

* Thu May 23 2024 Fabio Valentini - 2.2.5-3 - Rebuild with Rust 1.78 to fix incomplete debuginfo and backtraces
