-------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Fedora Update Notification FEDORA-2009-7616 2009-07-15 19:59:14 --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Name : pam_mount Product : Fedora 11 Version : 1.27 Release : 1.fc11 URL : http://pam-mount.sourceforge.net/ Summary : A PAM module that can mount volumes for a user session Description : This module is aimed at environments with central file servers that a user wishes to mount on login and unmount on logout, such as (semi-)diskless stations where many users can logon. The module also supports mounting local filesystems of any kind the normal mount utility supports, with extra code to make sure certain volumes are set up properly because often they need more than just a mount call, such as encrypted volumes. This includes SMB/CIFS, NCP, davfs2, FUSE, losetup crypto, dm-crypt/cryptsetup and truecrypt. If you intend to use pam_mount to protect volumes on your computer using an encrypted filesystem system, please know that there are many other issues you need to consider in order to protect your data. For example, you probably want to disable or encrypt your swap partition. Don't assume a system is secure without carefully considering potential threats. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Update Information: Upstream bug report: https://sourceforge.net/tracker/?func=detail&atid=430594&a id=2815949&group_id=41452 Upstream changelog for pam_mount 1.22-1.27 (backported changes excluded): v1.27 (July 01 2009) ==================== Changes: - mounting: stdout from mount programs is now discarded v1.26 (June 19 2009) ==================== Fixes: - config: do parse <cryptumount> elements from .xml Enhancements: - mount: pass fstype to NFS mount program - config: map "nfs4" fstype to NFSMOUNT - pam_mount: PAM function return code audit - config: warn about ignored "server" attribute in <volume> - config: print error message on config file syntax error v1.25 (May 09 2009) =================== Fixes: - fix splitting of "NTDOMAIN\username" strings Enhancements: - config: broaden variable expansion to resolve a case where it did not do expected expansion with AUFS v1.24 (April 23 2009) ===================== Fixes: - mount.crypt: keysize truncation must happen later -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- ChangeLog: * Thu Jul 2 2009 Till Maas <[email protected]> - 1.27-1 - Update to new release -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- References: [ 1 ] Bug #509462 - Update to 1.27 https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=509462 -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- This update can be installed with the "yum" update program.
