Summary
Red Hat Bug Fix Advisory: util-linux bug-fix update

Notes

Topic
An updated util-linux package that fixes multiple bugs is now available.
Details
The util-linux package contains a large variety of low-level system utilities that are necessary for a Linux system to function. Among others, util-linux contains the fdisk configuration tool and the login program. This update fixes the following bugs: * The login command segmentation fault on EOF. * The script command does not log all commands to the typescript file. * Obsolete information in the mkfs man page. * Obsolete information about fstab-sync in the fstab man page. * Obsolete information in the fdisk man page. * The blockdev command calls the blkpg ioctl with a wrong data structure. * The mount command does not check for validity of mtab information. * The mkswap defaults to v0 format on ppc64. * The fdisk command does not warn about DOS partition table limitations on on large hard drives. * The fdisk command does not properly detect VMware partitions. * The sfdisk command does not work correctly with large hard drives. * The logger command cannot be used when /usr is non-root partition. * The audit log injection attack via the login command. * The swapon command with the "-a" option does not complain about missing devices. Users of util-linux are advised to upgrade to this updated package, which resolves these issues.
