| Fixed In Version: | sudo-1.7.2p1-14.el5_8.1 | Doc Type: | Bug Fix |
| Doc Text: |
The sudo update RHSA-2012:0309 introduced a regression that caused the Security-Enhanced Linux (SELinux) context of the "/etc/nsswitch.conf" file to change during the installation or upgrade of the sudo package. This could cause various services confined by SELinux to no longer be permitted to access the file. In reported cases, this issue prevented PostgreSQL and Postfix from starting.
