Fedora Core 5 SELinux Policy Update: Security Fix for Multiple Issues

Security-enhanced Linux is a feature of the Linux® kernel and a number

of utilities with enhanced security functionality designed to add

mandatory access controls to Linux. The Security-enhanced Linux

kernel contains new architectural components originally developed to

improve the security of the Flask operating system. These

architectural components provide general support for the enforcement

of many kinds of mandatory access control policies, including those

based on the concepts of Type Enforcement®, Role-based Access

Control, and Multi-level Security.

This package contains checkpolicy, the SELinux policy compiler.

Only required for building policies.
