Description

This update for apparmor fixes the following issues:

These security issues were fixed:

- CVE-2017-6507: Preserve unknown profiles when reloading apparmor.service

(lp#1668892, boo#1029696)

- boo#1017260: Migration to apparmor.service accidently disable AppArmor.

Note: This will re-enable AppArmor if it was disabled by the last

update. You'll need to "rcapparmor reload" to actually load the

profiles, and then check aa-status for programs that need to be

restarted to apply the profiles.

These non-security issues were fixed:

- Fixed crash in aa-logprof on specific change_hat events

- boo#1016259: Added var.mount dependeny to apparmor.service

The aa-remove-unknown utility was added to unload unknown profiles

(lp#1668892)
