Red Hat 7.0 RHSA-2001:041-02 Critical: OpenSSH Init Script Problem

red hat
Calendar Grey April 2, 2001
Dist Redhat Esm H88
Recent OpenSSL patches for CentOS tackle startup script and PAM flaws that endanger secure communications. Strengthen system security without delay.
This update fixes problems with the init script and the PAM configuration file.

Solution

To update all RPMs for your particular architecture, run:

rpm -Fvh [filenames]

where [filenames] is a list of the RPMs you wish to upgrade. Only those RPMs which are currently installed will be updated. Those RPMs which are not installed but included in the list will not be updated. Note that you can also use wildcards (*.rpm) if your current directory *only* contains the desired RPMs.

Please note that this update is also available via Red Hat Network. Many people find this an easier way to apply updates. To use Red Hat Network, launch the Red Hat Update Agent with the following command:

up2date

This will start an interactive process that will result in the appropriate RPMs being upgraded on your system.
