Summary

nginx regression

Details

USN-3114-1 fixed a vulnerability in nginx. A packaging issue prevented nginx from being reinstalled or upgraded to a subsequent release. This update fixes the problem.

We apologize for the inconvenience.

Original advisory details:

Dawid Golunski discovered that the nginx package incorrectly handled log file permissions. A remote attacker could possibly use this issue to obtain root privileges.
