Fedora Core 5: 2006-663 Important: Libselinux Security Update

fedora
Calendar Grey June 19, 2006
Dist Fedora Esm H88
Enhancement patch for libselinux in Fedora Core 5, designed to bolster security protocols and optimize feature sets.
Updated package.

Summary

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.

libselinux provides an API for SELinux applications to get and set

process and file security contexts and to obtain security policy

decisions. Required for any applications that use the SELinux API.
