openSUSE-SU-2021:0520-1

This update for flatpak, libostree, xdg-desktop-portal, xdg-desktop-portal-gtk fixes the following issues:

libostree:

Update to version 2020.8

• Enable LTO. (bsc#1133120)

• This update contains scalability improvements and bugfixes.

• Caching-related HTTP headers are now supported on summaries and signatures, so that they do not have to be re-downloaded if not changed in the meanwhile.
• Summaries and delta have been reworked to allow more fine-grained fetching.
• Fixes several bugs related to atomic variables, HTTP timeouts, and 32-bit architectures.
• Static deltas can now be signed to more easily support offline verification.
• There's now support for multiple initramfs images; Is it possible to have a 'main' initramfs image and a secondary one which represents local configuration.
• The documentation is now moved to https://ostreedev.github.io/ostree/
• Fix for an assertion failure when upgrading from systems before ostree supported devicetree.
• ostree no longer hardlinks zero sized files to avoid hitting filesystem maximum link counts.
• ostree now supports / and /boot being on the same filesystem.
• Improvements to the GObject Introspection metadata, some (cosmetic) static analyzer fixes, a fix for the immutable bit on s390x, dropping a deprecated bit in the systemd unit file.
• Fix a regression 2020.4 where the 'readonly sysroot' changes incorrectly left the sysroot read-only on systems that started out with a read-only / (most of them, e.g. Fedora Silverblue/IoT at least).
• The default dracut config now enables reproducibility.
• There is a new ostree admin unlock --transient. This should to be a foundation for further support for 'live' updates.
• New ed25519 signing support, powered by libsodium.
• stree commit gained a new --base argument, which significantly simplifies constructing 'derived' commits, particularly for systems using SELinux.
• Handling of the read-only sysroot was reimplemented to run in the initramfs and be more reliable. Enabling the readonly=true flag in the repo config is recommended.
• Several fixes in locking for the temporary 'staging' directories OSTree creates, particularly on NFS.
• A new timestamp-check-from-rev option was added for pulls, which makes downgrade protection more reliable and will be used by Fedora CoreOS.
• Several fixes and enhancements made for 'collection' pulls including a new --mirror option.
• The ostree commit command learned a new --mode-ro-executables which enforces W^R semantics on all executables.
• Added a new commit metadata key OSTREE_COMMIT_META_KEY_ARCHITECTURE to help standardize the architecture of the OSTree commit. This could be used on the client side for example to sanity-check that the commit matches the architecture of the machine before deploying.
• Stop invalid usage of %_libexecdir:
  • Use %{_prefix}/lib where appropriate.
  • Use _systemdgeneratordir for the systemd-generators.
  • Define _dracutmodulesdir based on dracut.pc. Add BuildRequires(dracut) for this to work.

xdg-desktop-portal:

Update to version 1.8.0:

• Ensure systemd rpm macros are called at install/uninstall times for systemd user services.
• Add BuildRequires on systemd-rpm-macros.

• Fixes for %_libexecdir changing to /usr/libexec

flatpak:

• Update to version 1.10.2 (jsc#SLE-17238, ECO-3148)

• Fix memory leaks
• Documentation and translations updates
• Spawn portal better handles non-utf8 filenames
• Fix flatpak build on systems with setuid bwrap
• Fix crash on updating apps with no deploy data
• Remove deprecated texinfo packaging macros.
• Support for the new repo format which should make updates faster and download less data.
• The systemd generator snippets now call flatpak --print-updated-env in place of a bunch of shell for better login performance.
• The .profile snippets now disable GVfs when calling flatpak to avoid spawning a gvfs daemon when logging in via ssh.
• Flatpak now finds the pulseaudio sockets better in uncommon configurations.
• Sandboxes with network access it now also has access to the systemd-resolved socket to do dns lookups.
• Flatpak supports unsetting environment variables in the sandbox using --unset-env, and --env=FOO= now sets FOO to the empty string instead of unsetting it.
• The spawn portal now has an option to share the pid namespace with the sub-sandbox.
• This security update fixes a sandbox escape where a malicious application can execute code outside the sandbox by controlling the environment of the 'flatpak run' command when spawning a sub-sandbox (bsc#1180996, CVE-2021-21261)
• Fix support for ppc64.
• Move flatpak-bisect and flatpak-coredumpctl to devel subpackage, allow to remove python3 dependency on main package.

• OCI authenticator now doesn't ask for auth in case of http errors.
• Fix invalid usage of %{_libexecdir} to reference systemd directories.
• Fixes for %_libexecdir changing to /usr/libexec

• Don't fail transaction if ref is already installed (after transaction start)
• Fix flatpak run handling of userns in the --device=all case
• Fix handling of extensions from different remotes
• Fix flatpak run --no-session-bus
• FlatpakTransaction has a new signal install-authenticator which clients can handle to install authenticators needed for the transaction. This is done in the CLI commands.
• Now the host timezone data is always exposed, fixing several apps that had timezone issues.
• There's a new systemd unit (not installed by default) to automatically detect plugged in usb sticks with sideload repos.
• By default the gdm env.d file is no longer installed because the systemd generators work better.
