Details

Updated coreutils packages that fix a bug are now available.

The coreutils package contains core GNU utilities. It is the combination
of the old GNU fileutils, sh-utils, and textutils packages.

The id(1) command now uses the getgrouplist() function, which is much
faster than the previous method of repeatedly calling getgrent().

Users should upgrade to these updated packages, which resolve this issue.

This update is available via Red Hat Network. To use Red Hat Network,
