RHBA-2020:1474 - Bug Fix Advisory

Topic

An update for sssd is now available for Red Hat Enterprise Linux 7.3 Advanced Update Support.

Description

The System Security Services Daemon (SSSD) service provides a set of daemons to manage access to remote directories and authentication mechanisms. It also provides the Name Service Switch (NSS) and the Pluggable Authentication Modules (PAM) interfaces toward the system, and a pluggable back-end system to connect to multiple different account sources.

Bug Fix(es) and Enhancement(s):

• ldap_purge_cache_timeout in RHEL7.3 invalidate most of the entries once the cleanup task kicks in (BZ#1471808)
• Removing an IPA sub-group should NOT remove the members from indirect parent that also belong to other subgroups [rhel-7.3.z] (BZ#1817374)
