An update that solves one vulnerability and has two security fixes can now be installed.

Description:

This update for slurm fixes the following issues:

  • Fix interaction with systemd: systemd expects that a daemonizing process doesn't go away until the PID file with it PID of the daemon has bee written (bsc#1084125).

  • Make sure systemd services get restarted only when all packages are in a consistent state, not in the middle of an 'update' transaction (bsc#1088693). Since the %postun scripts that run on update are from the old package they cannot be changed - thus we work around the restart breakage.

  • CVE-2018-7033: Fixed security issue in accounting_storage/mysql plugin by always escaping strings within the slurmdbd (bsc#1085240).
