Fedora Update Notification
FEDORA-2013-10841
2013-06-14 22:42:46
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Name        : krb5
Product     : Fedora 19
Version     : 1.11.3
Release     : 2.fc19
URL         : http://web.mit.edu/kerberos/www/
Summary     : The Kerberos network authentication system
Description :
Kerberos V5 is a trusted-third-party network authentication system,
which can improve your network's security by eliminating the insecure
practice of sending passwords over the network in unencrypted form.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Update Information:

This update teaches libkrb5 to attempt to create the /run/user/0 directory when 
attempting to access a directory-based ("DIR:") credential cache in a 
subdirectory of that location when the directory does not yet exist.

While this may allow credentials to be stored in and read from that location in 
some cases where they couldn't be before, it does not cooperate with logind, so 
this does not represent a complete fix for bug #961235.  On systems which 
require the directory to be present in a dependable fashion, loginctl(1) should 
be used to enable lingering for the root user.

ChangeLog:

* Thu Jun 13 2013 Nalin Dahyabhai <[email protected]> 1.11.3-2
- special-case /run/user/0, attempting to create it when resolving a
  directory cache below it fails due to ENOENT and we find that it doesn't
  already exist, either, before attempting to create the directory cache
  (maybe helping, maybe just making things more confusing for #961235)
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

This update can be installed with the "yum" update program.  Use 
su -c 'yum update krb5' at the command line.
