Red Hat RPM Security Advisory: Major Flaw by CloudLinux Developer

Red Hat has used RPM for software package distribution for decades, but thanks to CloudLinux developer Dmitry Antipov we now know that RPM contained a nasty hidden security bug since Day One. A repair patch for this major security hole has been submitted, but Antipov fears that it may be months before the fix is released. . In 1995, when Linux 1.x was the hot new Linux kernel, early Red Hat founding programmers Marc Ewing and Erik Troan created RPM . This software package management system became the default way to distribute software for Red Hat Linux-based distributions such as Red Hat Enterprise Linux (RHEL) , CentOS Stream , AlmaLinux OS , and Rocky Linux . Unfortunately, hidden within its heart is a major security hole. Dmitry Antipov, a Linux developer at CloudLinux , AlmaLinux OS's parent company, first spotted the problem in March 2021. Antipov found that RPM would work with unauthorized RPM packages . This meant that unsigned packages or packages signed with revoked keys could silently be patched or updated without a word of warning that they might not be kosher. . An important vulnerability in RPM identified by Dmitry Antipov poses risks for Red Hat and related distributions.. Red Hat Package Management, RPM Security Flaw, Linux Issues, CloudLinux. .
