Fixed In Version: binutils-2.23.52.0.1-30.el7.1 Doc Type: Bug Fix
Doc Text:
Previously, binary files generated by the ld.so script in some cases lacked the Relocation Read-Only (RELRO) protection even when RELRO was explicitly requested on the command line. This update adjusts the underlying source code to ensure that RELRO protection is properly set for binary files created by ld.so.
