### Override packages (currently only for EL9)
|
||||
|
||||
- glibc (adds many security-hardening changes originating from Owl and ALT Linux on top of EL package, fixes [CVE-2023-4527](https://www.openwall.com/lists/oss-security/2023/09/25/1))
|
||||
- glibc (adds many security-hardening changes originating from Owl and ALT Linux on top of EL package)
|
||||
- openssh (fewer shared libraries exposed in sshd processes while otherwise fully matching EL package's functionality)
|
||||
|
||||
The changes are described in more detail in the package changelogs.
|
||||
The inclusion of additional security fixes will be "reverted" if and when those get included in upstream EL packages that we rebase our changes on.
|
||||
More packages/changes are planned, including override packages also for EL8.
|
||||
|
||||
#### Known-effective vulnerability mitigations and fixes
|
||||
|
||||
`glibc-2.34-60.el9_2.security.0.2` (specifically the `.0.2` version!) includes mitigations sufficient to avoid security exposure of [CVE-2023-4911](https://www.openwall.com/lists/oss-security/2023/10/03/2) and a backport of upstream glibc fix of [CVE-2023-4527](https://www.openwall.com/lists/oss-security/2023/09/25/1) that was not yet in upstream EL.
|
||||
|
||||
The inclusion of additional security fixes will be "reverted" if and when those get included in upstream EL packages that we rebase our changes on.
|
||||
|
||||
## Source code
|
||||
|
||||
Just like for other Rocky Linux SIGs, the source trees for Security SIG packages are maintained in [per-package git repositories](https://git.rockylinux.org/sig/security/src). Each repository contains branches `r8` and/or `r9` corresponding to target EL version.
