and why are the hardening flags not added due a new build? the package runs as root and so "you MUST enable the PIE compiler flags" is not a "you should"! * Tue Aug 13 2013 Jes Sorensen <Jes.Sorensen> - 3.2.6-21 - Fix pointless rpmbuild noise over mismatching date info - Remove Fedora 17 support - Fix problem where first stop command doesn't stop container during IMSM volume's reshape bz956053 (f18), bz956056 (f19) Because I will deal with the PIE stuff when I have time to dedicate some time to it. If you actually read the Fedora guide about this, you would also have noticed this portion: "There are some notable disadvantages to enabling PIE that should be considered in making the decision: Some code does not compile with PIE (or does not function properly)." mdadm is an important package that affects integrity of users' data. It is not something to just play around with randomly and see what might break! It needs to be tested properly, in particularly if messing with flags like PIE. thanks, that is at least an answer to a bugreport opened a month ago there are hardened distributions with *all* packages Full RELRO/PIE "Immediate binding: no, not found!" to fix at least would be a good idea http://tk-blog.blogspot.co.at/2009/02/relro-not-so-well-known-memory.html This message is a reminder that Fedora 18 is nearing its end of life. Approximately 4 (four) weeks from now Fedora will stop maintaining and issuing updates for Fedora 18. It is Fedora's policy to close all bug reports from releases that are no longer maintained. At that time this bug will be closed as WONTFIX if it remains open with a Fedora 'version' of '18'. Package Maintainer: If you wish for this bug to remain open because you plan to fix it in a currently maintained version, simply change the 'version' to a later Fedora version prior to Fedora 18's end of life. Thank you for reporting this issue and we are sorry that we may not be able to fix it before Fedora 18 is end of life. If you would still like to see this bug fixed and are able to reproduce it against a later version of Fedora, you are encouraged change the 'version' to a later Fedora version prior to Fedora 18's end of life. Although we aim to fix as many bugs as possible during every release's lifetime, sometimes those efforts are overtaken by events. Often a more recent Fedora release includes newer upstream software that fixes bugs or makes them obsolete. STILL THE SAME IN F19/F20 This message is a notice that Fedora 19 is now at end of life. Fedora has stopped maintaining and issuing updates for Fedora 19. It is Fedora's policy to close all bug reports from releases that are no longer maintained. Approximately 4 (four) weeks from now this bug will be closed as EOL if it remains open with a Fedora 'version' of '19'. Package Maintainer: If you wish for this bug to remain open because you plan to fix it in a currently maintained version, simply change the 'version' to a later Fedora version. Thank you for reporting this issue and we are sorry that we were not able to fix it before Fedora 19 is end of life. If you would still like to see this bug fixed and are able to reproduce it against a later version of Fedora, you are encouraged change the 'version' to a later Fedora version prior this bug is closed as described in the policy above. Although we aim to fix as many bugs as possible during every release's lifetime, sometimes those efforts are overtaken by events. Often a more recent Fedora release includes newer upstream software that fixes bugs or makes them obsolete. Fedora 19 changed to end-of-life (EOL) status on 2015-01-06. Fedora 19 is no longer maintained, which means that it will not receive any further security or bug fix updates. As a result we are closing this bug. If you can reproduce this bug against a currently maintained version of Fedora please feel free to reopen this bug against that version. If you are unable to reopen this bug, please file a new report against the current release. If you experience problems, please add a comment to this bug. Thank you for reporting this bug and we are sorry it could not be fixed. |
