Scientific Linux: Errata 14-46-20 Low Severity SELinux-Policy Update

Low: selinux-policy enhancement update. Date: Thu, 8 Mar 2012 14:46:20 -0600 Reply-To: Pat Riehecky Sender: Security Errata for Scientific Linux From: Pat Riehecky Organization: Fermilab Subject: Security ERRATA Low: selinux-policy on SL6.x i386/x86_64 MIME-Version: 1.0 Synopsis: Low: selinux-policy enhancement update Issue date: 2012-03-07 This update fixes the following bugs: * An incorrect SELinux policy prevented the qpidd service from connecting to the AMQP (Advanced Message Queuing Protocol) port when the qpidd daemon was configured with Corosync clustering. These selinux-policy packages contain updated SELinux rules, which allow the qpidd service to be started correctly. * With SELinux in enforcing mode, an OpenMPI job submitted to the parallel universe environment failed on ssh keys generation. This happened because the ssh-keygen utility was not able to read from and write to the "/var/lib/condor/" directory". With this update, a new SELinux policy has been added for the "/var/lib/condor/" directory, which allows the ssh-keygen utility to read from and write to this directory.SL6.x SRPMS: selinux-policy-3.7.19-126.el6_2.10.src.rpm i386: selinux-policy-3.7.19-126.el6_2.10.noarch.rpm selinux-policy-doc-3.7.19-126.el6_2.10.noarch.rpm selinux-policy-minimum-3.7.19-126.el6_2.10.noarch.rpm selinux-policy-mls-3.7.19-126.el6_2.10.noarch.rpm selinux-policy-targeted-3.7.19-126.el6_2.10.noarch.rpm x86_64: selinux-policy-3.7.19-126.el6_2.10.noarch.rpm selinux-policy-doc-3.7.19-126.el6_2.10.noarch.rpm selinux-policy-minimum-3.7.19-126.el6_2.10.noarch.rpm selinux-policy-mls-3.7.19-126.el6_2.10.noarch.rpm selinux-policy-targeted-3.7.19-126.el6_2.10.noarch.rpm .
