RHBA-2021:2227 - Bug Fix Advisory

Topic

Updated devtoolset-10-annobin packages are now available as a part of Red Hat Developer Toolset for Red Hat Enterprise Linux.

Description

Annobin is a build security checking tool. The tool consists of annobin, a plug-in for GCC, and annocheck, a program for examining compiled binary files. The annobin plug-in records security-related command-line options that are used when a program is built. This information is stored in the binary files as a special, non-loadable, section. The annocheck tool examines the information, as well as other features of the compiled program, and generates a report about its security hardening status. The devtoolset-10-annobin packages provide the Red Hat Developer Toolset 10 version of Annobin.

The devtoolset-10-annobin packages have been updated with Red Hat Developer Toolset 10.1. (BZ#1934066)

For detailed changes in this release, see the Red Hat Developer Toolset 10.1 User Guide linked from the References section.
