Fedora 42: podman Critical ALPN Errors CPU Fix FEDORA-2025-8a248ee4f4

fedora
Calendar Grey November 25, 2025
Dist Fedora Esm H88
Fedora 42 podman update fixes critical ALPN negotiation issues and CPU consumption vulnerabilities for enhanced security.
Automatic update for podman-5.7.0-1.fc42, buildah-1.42.1-1.fc42

Summary

podman (Pod Manager) is a fully featured container engine that is a simple

daemonless tool. podman provides a Docker-CLI comparable command line that

eases the transition from other container engines and allows the management of

pods, containers and images. Simply put: alias docker=podman.

Most podman commands can be run as a regular user, without requiring

additional privileges.

podman uses Buildah(1) internally to create container images.

Both tools share image (not container) storage, hence each can use or

manipulate images (but not containers) created by the other.
