Security Fix(es):

  * A race condition was found in the way su handled the management of child
processes. A local authenticated attacker could use this flaw to kill other
processes with root privileges under specific conditions. (CVE-2017-2616)

Red Hat would like to thank Tobias Stockmann for reporting this issue.

Bug Fix(es):

  * The 'findmnt --target  path ' command prints all file systems where the
mount point directory is  path. Previously, when used in the chroot
environment, 'findmnt --target  path ' incorrectly displayed all mount
points. The command has been fixed so that it now checks the mount point
path and returns information only for the relevant mount point.
