Summary
Security update for Salt
Details

This update for salt fixes one security issue and bugs:

The following security issue has been fixed:

  • CVE-2017-12791: Directory traversal vulnerability in minion id validation allowed remote minions with incorrect credentials to authenticate to a master via a crafted minion ID (bsc#1053955).

Additionally, the following non-security issues have been fixed:

  • Added support for SUSE Manager scalability features. (bsc#1052264)
  • Introduced the kubernetes module. (bsc#1051948)
  • Notify systemd synchronously via NOTIFY_SOCKET. (bsc#1053376)
  • Added bugfix when jobs scheduled to run at a future time stay pending for Salt minions. (bsc#1036125)
  • Adding procps as dependency. This provides 'ps' and 'pgrep' utils which are called from different Salt modules and also from new salt-minion watchdog.
