RHBA-2024:8863 - gcc-toolset-14-annobin bug fix and enhancement update

Synopsis

gcc-toolset-14-annobin bug fix and enhancement update

Type/Severity

Bug Fix Advisory None

Topic

An update for gcc-toolset-14-annobin is now available for Red Hat Enterprise Linux 8.

Description

This package contains the tools needed to annotate binary files created by compilers, and also the tools needed to examine those annotations. One of the tools is a plugin for GCC that records information about the security options that were in effect when the binary was compiled. Note - the plugin is automatically enabled in gcc builds via flags provided by the redhat-rpm-macros package. One of the tools is a plugin for Clang that records information about the security options that were in effect when the binary was compiled. One of the tools is a plugin for LLVM that records information about the security options that were in effect when the binary was compiled. One of the tools is a security checker which analyses the notes present in annotated files and reports on any missing security options.

  • cannot rebuild gcc-toolset-14-annobin in GTS-14 env [RHEL-8.10.z] (JIRA:RHEL-53543)

  • MAYB: test: gaps, reason: not all of the .text section is covered (JIRA:RHEL-53218)

  • GTS-14 annobin installs itself into a wrong GCC directory [rhel-8.10.z] (JIRA:RHEL-53210)

  • gcc-toolset-14-annobin conflicts with annobin [rhel-8.10.z] (JIRA:RHEL-53191)

  • annocheck segfaults [GTS-14/RHEL-8.10.z] (JIRA:RHEL-53497)

  • can't install GTS-13 and GTS-14 clang and llvm plugins in parallel [RHEL-8] (JIRA:RHEL-54178)

Enhancement(s):

  • [RFE] Add gcc-toolset-14 as a software collection to RHEL 8[annobin component] (JIRA:RHEL-30409)
