Fedora Core 6: FEDORA-2007-590 Critical iSCSI Initiator Security Fix

fedora
Calendar Grey June 13, 2007
Dist Fedora Esm H88
Boost your Fedora Core 6 environment by incorporating security enhancements for iscsi-initiator-utils along with crucial rebase updates.
This update to iscsi-initiator-utils is a rebase to the upstream open-iscsi-2.0-865 release

Summary

The iscsi package provides the server daemon for the iSCSI protocol,

as well as the utility programs used to manage it. iSCSI is a protocol

for distributed disk access using SCSI commands sent over Internet

Protocol networks.

This update to iscsi-initiator-utils is a rebase to the

upstream open-iscsi-2.0-865 release. This release includes

two security fixes, which are described here,

https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=243719

bug fixes and new features.

The tools in this release use a different db format, but the

tools are able to read old and new formats. If you want to

use the new features you must update the db, by

rediscovering your targets and reconfiguring them. Once the

db has been updated you cannot use older tools on it.

See the README and man pages for information on the new

features.

- Rebase upstream

* Tue Feb 6 2007 Mike Christie - 6.2.0.754-0.0

- Rebase to upstream.

- Add back --map functionality but in session mode to match RHEL5 fixes

- Break up iscsi init script into two, so iscsid can be started early for root
