RHEA-2009:1410 - Product Enhancement Advisory
Synopsis
findutils enhancement update
Type/Severity
Product Enhancement Advisory
Red Hat Insights patch analysis
Identify and remediate systems affected by this advisory.
Topic
An enhanced findutils package is now available.
Description
The findutils package contains programs for locating files. The find
utility searches for files matching a certain set of criteria. The xargs
utility builds and executes command lines from standard input arguments.
This updated findutils package adds the following enhancement:
- when using the "find" utility to search a directory hierarchy which
contained autofs mounts, it dutifully triggered the aufofs mounts so that
they could be searched, even when "find" had been directed to exclude NFS
shares. With these updated packages, "find" possesses an additional
exclusionary flag, "-xautofs", that prevents "find" from searching all
autofs direct mounts in the searched directory hierarchy. (BZ#485672)
Users of findutils are advised to upgrade to this updated package, which
adds this enhancement.
Solution
Before applying this update, make sure that all previously-released
errata relevant to your system have been applied.
