[CentOS-announce] CentOS Project shifts focus to CentOS Stream
year we'll be shifting focus from CentOS Linux, the rebuild of Red Hat
Enterprise Linux (RHEL), to CentOS Stream, which tracks just ahead of a
current RHEL release. CentOS Linux 8, as a rebuild of RHEL 8, will end
at the end of 2021. CentOS Stream continues after that date, serving as
the upstream (development) branch of Red Hat Enterprise Linux.
Meanwhile, we understand many of you are deeply invested in CentOS Linux
7, and we'll continue to produce that version through the remainder of
the RHEL 7 life cycle.
https://access.redhat.com/support/policy/updates/errata/#Life_Cycle_Dates
CentOS Stream will also be the centerpiece of a major shift in
collaboration among the CentOS Special Interest Groups (SIGs). This
ensures SIGs are developing and testing against what becomes the next
version of RHEL. This also provides SIGs a clear single goal, rather
than having to build and test for two releases. It gives the CentOS
contributor community a great deal of influence in the future of RHEL.
And it removes confusion around what "CentOS" means in the Linux
distribution ecosystem.
When CentOS Linux 8 (the rebuild of RHEL8) ends, your best option will
be to migrate to CentOS Stream 8, which is a small delta from CentOS
Linux 8, and has regular updates like traditional CentOS Linux releases.
If you are using CentOS Linux 8 in a production environment, and are
concerned that CentOS Stream will not meet your needs, we encourage you
to contact Red Hat about options.
We have an FAQ - https://centos.org/distro-faq/ - to help with your
information and planning needs, as you figure out how this shift of
project focus might affect you.

[CentOS-announce] Release for CentOS Linux 8 (2011)
We are pleased to announce the general availability of CentOS Linux 8.
Effectively immediately, this is the current release for CentOS Linux 8
and is tagged as 2011, derived from Red Hat Enterprise Linux 8.3 Source
Code.
As always, read through the Release Notes at:
http://wiki.centos.org/Manuals/ReleaseNotes/CentOS8.2011 - these notes
contain important information about the release and details about some
of the content inside the release from the CentOS QA team. These notes
are updated constantly to include issues and incorporate feedback from
users.
----------
Updates, Sources, and DebugInfos
Updates released since the upstream release are all posted, across all
architectures. We strongly recommend every user apply all updates,
including the content released today, on your existing CentOS Linux 8
machine by just running 'dnf update'.
As with all CentOS Linux 8 components, this release was built from
sources hosted at git.centos.org. Sources will be available from
vault.centos.org in their own dedicated directories to match the
corresponding binary RPMs.
Since there is far less traffic to the CentOS source RPMs compared with
the binary RPMs, we are not putting this content on the main mirror
network. If users wish to mirror this content they can do so using the
reposync command available in the yum/dnf-utils package. All CentOS
source RPMs are signed with the same key used to sign their binary
counterparts. Developers and end users looking at inspecting and
contributing patches to the CentOS Linux distro will find the
code hosted at git.centos.org far simpler to work against. Details on
how to best consume those are documented along with a quick start at:
http://wiki.centos.org/Sources
Debuginfo packages have been signed and pushed. Yum configs
shipped in the new release file will have all the context required for
debuginfo to be available on every CentOS Linux install.
This release supersedes all previously released content for CentOS
Linux 8, and therefore we highly encourage all users to upgrade their
machines. Information on different upgrade strategies and how to
handle stale content is included in the Release Notes.
Note that older content, obsoleted by newer versions of the same
applications are trim'd off from repos like extras/ and centosplus/

Contributors
This release was made possible due to the hard work of many people,
foremost on that list are the Red Hat Engineers for producing a great
distribution and the CentOS QA team, without them CentOS Linux would
look very different. Many of the team went further and beyond
expectations to bring this release to you, and I would like to thank
everyone for their help.
We are also looking for people to get involved with the QA process in
CentOS, if you would like to join this please introduce yourself on
the centos-devel list
(http://lists.centos.org/mailman/listinfo/centos-devel).
Finally, please join me in thanking the donors who all make this
possible for us.
Enjoy the fresh new release!
Thanks,
Brian Stinson

Fedora 34 Change: Stratis 2.3.0 (Self-Contained Change)
Stratis 2.3.0 adds additional flexibility to its encryption support via Clevis.
== Owner ==
* Name: [[User:dkeefe|Dennis Keefe]], [[User:mulhern|Anne Mulhern]], [[User:jbaublitz|John Baublitz]]
* Email: dkeefe@redhat.com, amulhern@redhat.com, jbaublitz@redhat.com
=== Stratis 2.3.0 ===
This release extends the pool unlock command, and adds two new commands, pool bind and pool unbind.
The pool bind command establishes an alternative mechanism for unlocking a pool. The user may select either the "tang" mechanism, which implements NBDE (Network-bound Disc Encryption) by means of a Tang server, or the "tpm2" mechanism, which uses TPM 2.0 (Trusted Platform Module) encryption. Binding the devices in a pool to a supplementary Clevis encryption policy does not remove the primary encryption mechanism, which uses a key in the kernel keyring.
The pool unbind command simply unbinds a previously added encryption policy from all the devices in the specified pool.
In the pool unlock command it is now necessary to specify the mechanism. Use clevis to make use of the Clevis unlocking policy previously specified for the devices in the pool. Use keyring, to make use of the mechanism that uses a key in the kernel keyring, which was introduced in Stratis 2.1.0. Note that the pool unlock command unlocks all currently locked pools.
== Detailed Description ==
=== stratisd 2.3.0 ===
This release introduces two D-Bus interface revisions, which differ in the following way from the previous revisions.
org.storage.stratis2.Manager.r3 modifies the UnlockPool method to take an additional parameter, unlock_method, which may be keyring or clevis.
org.storage.stratis2.pool.r3 adds two new method: Bind and Unbind. The Bind method takes two arguments, pin and json. The pin argument designates the Clevis pin as a string, and the json argument encodes a Clevis configuration appropriate to the designated pin. The configuration is a JSON object. Besides Clevis information, it may include Stratis-specific keys that encode configuration decisions that Stratis may implement. At present there is just one such key: stratis:tang:trust_url. The Unbind method reverses a Bind action.
== Remarks ==
The Bind method may be called with any Clevis pin and configuration; we expect that any valid Clevis pin and configuration can be used to bind the devices in a pool. However the Stratis project officially supports only the "tang" and "tpm2" pins as those are the pins that may be designated via stratis. Support for additional Clevis policies may be introduced into stratis in later releases.
When binding a supplementary encryption policy to the devices in a pool using Clevis, the primary key, which is the key in the kernel keyring which was originally used to encrypt each device, must be supplied. stratisd obtains the appropriate key from the kernel keyring in order to provide it to the Clevis binding mechanism. The correct key must be present in the keyring for the bind operation to succeed. It is not necessary for the user to specify the key, stratisd obtains the necessary information from the LUKS2 metadata on the devices in the pool.
In general, it is unwise to write a key consisting of arbitrary binary data to a keyfile. An accidental newline character in the data may cause the contents of the file to be truncated at the newline when read in one context while all the data may be read from the file in some other context.
We are not aware that such a mistake would result in any error in Stratis's operation when Stratis is used in the way that we recommend. We explicitly acknowledge that it might be possible, through some direct interaction with the stratisd D-Bus API, or by, e.g., setting a key in the kernel keyring without using stratis, to manufacture a situation where stratisd could not bind the devices in a pool, even when the correct key is set in the kernel keyring. We would not treat such a situation as evidence of a bug in Stratis.
== Feedback ==
== Benefits to Fedora ==
Users of Fedora will now benefit from Stratis 2.3.0 by:
* Multiple methods of unlocking Stratis pools using
- Kernel keyring

[USN-4656-2] X.Org X Server vulnerabilities
Ubuntu Security Notice USN-4656-2
December 07, 2020
xorg-server vulnerabilities
==========================================================================
A security issue affects these releases of Ubuntu and its derivatives:
- Ubuntu 14.04 ESM
Summary:
Several security issues were fixed in X.Org X Server.
Software Description:
- xorg-server: X.Org X11 server
Details:
USN-4656-1 fixed several vulnerabilities in X.Org. This update provides
the corresponding update for Ubuntu 14.04 ESM.
Original advisory details:
Jan-Niklas Sohn discovered that the X.Org X Server XKB extension
incorrectly handled certain inputs. A local attacker could possibly use
this issue to escalate privileges.
Update instructions:
The problem can be corrected by updating your system to the following
package versions:
Ubuntu 14.04 ESM:
xserver-xorg-core 2:1.15.1-0ubuntu2.11+esm3
After a standard system update you need to reboot your computer to make all
the necessary changes.

CVE-2020-14360, CVE-2020-25712
Fedora 34 Change: Ignore Anaconda kernel boot parameters without 'inst.' prefix (System-Wide change)
== Summary ==
Right now Anaconda allows usage of boot options both with the 'inst' prefix (inst.stage2=) and without (stage2=). We would like to ignore the use of Anaconda kernel boot parameters which do not contain the 'inst.' prefix.
== Owner ==
* Name: [[User:jkonecny| Jiří Konečný]]
* Email: <jkonecny@redhat.com>
== Detailed Description ==
Anaconda allows you to use kernel boot parameters with and without the 'inst.' prefix right now (e.g. inst.repo= / repo=). However, specifying boot parameters without the 'inst' prefix has not been recommended for years and has been deprecated since Fedora 33. We (Anaconda team) would like to make it an official requirement now that users must specify the 'inst.' prefix all the time.
The reason for this is frequent parameter conflicts with other projects. We already had a few issues with conflicts in the past, such as if the user ran an installation with `debug`. In that case the installation boot would enable debug mode for the kernel and also for Anaconda which is probably not what the user intended.
Another reason is to make it readable at first glance what belongs to Dracut (rd.), kernel (no prefix) or Anaconda (inst.).
== Feedback ==
We have sent mail about doing the deprecation on Fedora 33. The only issue there was why the prefix is 'inst.' and not 'anaconda.'. https://lists.fedoraproject.org/archives/list/devel@lists.fedoraproject.org/thread/43LKTJOUO5TB7LGFWPRNXOYLEQF3KLGG/#ENTHA45Y6VO45FAD4ULPSHCTOXPML3PA
== Benefit to Fedora ==
This change should make crystal clear what kernel boot parameters are processed by the Anaconda installer.
It will also avoid conflicts with other kernel boot parameters.
== Scope ==
* Proposal owners: Remove support to process arguments without the 'inst.' prefix and require the 'inst.' prefix for kernel boot parameters consumed by Anaconda.
* Other developers:
All configurations using the not-recommended solution without prefix will have to change the invocation of the kernel boot options consumed by Anaconda. These users are already warned since Fedora 33 after boot.
This should not be a problem for ISOs we ship because they already use the recommended 'inst.' prefix everywhere. However, it will probably touch some custom PXE configurations and other custom ISO configurations which are prone to this, because users often want to save typing and not explicitly write the 'inst.' prefix. Fortunately, most of these configuration changes shouldn't be that hard to change.
* Release engineering: [https://pagure.io/releng/issue/9889 #9889]
* Policies and guidelines: This should not be required. All the documentation should use the recommended 'inst.' prefix already.
* Trademark approval: No (not needed for this Change)
* Alignment with Objectives: No
== Upgrade/compatibility impact ==
If your custom infra configuration is not updated then new Fedora installations could not install correctly. Most probably the ISO will not boot (use of 'stage2=') or your repositories won't be used (use of 'repo=').
== How To Test ==
# You need a Virtual Machine and ISO for testing.
# Boot the installation using the ISO and try Anaconda specific kernel boot parameters. See here to find out the list https://anaconda-installer.readthedocs.io/en/latest/boot-options.html.
# Parameters without the prefix should be ignored and with the prefix should be used.
== User Experience ==
Users of Fedora official ISOs should not be impacted because all the Fedora official ISOs should already use the recommended prefix.
== Dependencies ==
Don't know about any packages impacted by this change.
== Contingency Plan ==
* Contingency mechanism: The Anaconda team will revert code changes and get back support for boot parameters without the 'inst.' prefix.
* Contingency deadline: Final Freeze
* Blocks release? No
* Blocks product? This won't require changes for any specific product.
== Documentation ==
I don't think we need to document this change other than in Release Notes. As mentioned before, the solution without 'inst.' prefix has not been recommended for years and it should not be used anywhere in the official documentation.

Updated Debian 10: 10.7 released
The Debian Project https://www.debian.org/
Updated Debian 10: 10.7 released press@debian.org
December 5th, 2020 https://www.debian.org/News/2020/20201205
------------------------------------------------------------------------
The Debian project is pleased to announce the seventh update of its
stable distribution Debian 10 (codename "buster"). This point release
mainly adds corrections for security issues, along with a few
adjustments for serious problems. Security advisories have already been
published separately and are referenced where available.
Please note that the point release does not constitute a new version of
Debian 10 but only updates some of the packages included. There is no
need to throw away old "buster" media. After installation, packages can
be upgraded to the current versions using an up-to-date Debian mirror.
Those who frequently install updates from security.debian.org won't have
to update many packages, and most such updates are included in the point
release.
New installation images will be available soon at the regular locations.
Upgrading an existing installation to this revision can be achieved by
pointing the package management system at one of Debian's many HTTP
mirrors. A comprehensive list of mirrors is available at:
https://www.debian.org/mirror/list
