Description

  • Update to latest release

  • Emission of Session property-changed notifications from logind is fixed (this was breaking the switching of sessions to and from gnome).

  • Security issue: unprivileged users were allowed to change DNS servers configured in systemd-resolved. Now proper polkit authorization is required (CVE-2019-15718).

Switching ttys will work again after reboot. Otherwise, no log out or reboot is required.

Note that Tenable Network Security has extracted the preceding description block directly from the Fedora update system website. Tenable has attempted to automatically clean and format it as much as possible without introducing additional issues.
