Fedora Update Notification
FEDORA-2010-12788

Name : certmonger
Product : Fedora 14
Version : 0.30
Release : 1.fc14
URL : http://certmonger.fedorahosted.org
Summary : Certificate status monitor and PKI enrollment client
Description :
Certmonger is a service which is primarily concerned with getting your
system enrolled with a certificate authority (CA) and keeping it enrolled.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Update Information:
When used to tell certmonger to start tracking a certificate (and, when its
validity period ends, to attempt to get a fresh certificate from a CA), the
'getcert' utility could not be told to pass a PIN value (or the name of a file
containing the PIN) to the certmonger daemon, so certmonger would not correctly
handle keys stored using encryption. When a helper process (for example, a
helper used for submitting a signing request to a CA) needed to be stopped, the
process's exit status would not be reaped, so the helper process would become a
zombie. When self-signing certificates stored in NSS databases, the
certificate notBefore or notAfter values could be incorrect on 32-bit systems.
This update also incorporates init script fixes and translation updates.
