<summary>Security update for libseccomp, python-Cython</summary>
<description>This update for libseccomp, python-Cython fixes the following issues:
python-Cython was updated to version 0.29.14 to make libseccomp work.
Changes in libseccomp:
Update to release 2.5.3:
* Update the syscall table for Linux v5.15
* Fix issues with multiplexed syscalls on mipsel introduced in v2.5.2
* Document that seccomp_rule_add() may return -EACCES
Update to release 2.5.2:
* Update the syscall table for Linux v5.14-rc7
* Add a function, get_notify_fd(), to the Python bindings to
get the nofication file descriptor.
* Consolidate multiplexed syscall handling for all
architectures into one location.
* Add multiplexed syscall support to PPC and MIPS
* The meaning of SECCOMP_IOCTL_NOTIF_ID_VALID changed within
the kernel. libseccomp's fd notification logic was modified
to support the kernel's previous and new usage of
SECCOMP_IOCTL_NOTIF_ID_VALID.
Update to 2.5.1:
* Fix a bug where seccomp_load() could only be called once
* Change the notification fd handling to only request a notification fd if
* the filter has a _NOTIFY action
* Add documentation about SCMP_ACT_NOTIFY to the seccomp_add_rule(3) manpage
* Clarify the maintainers' GPG keys
Update to release 2.5.0;
* Add support for the seccomp user notifications, see the
seccomp_notify_alloc(3), seccomp_notify_receive(3),
seccomp_notify_respond(3) manpages for more information
* Add support for new filter optimization approaches, including a balanced
tree optimization, see the SCMP_FLTATR_CTL_OPTIMIZE filter attribute for
more information
* Add support for the 64-bit RISC-V architecture
* Performance improvements when adding new rules to a filter thanks to the
use of internal shadow transactions and improved syscall lookup tables
* Properly document the libseccomp API return values and include them in the
stable API promise
* Improvements to the s390 and s390x multiplexed syscall handling
* Multiple fixes and improvements to the libseccomp manpages
* Moved from manually maintained syscall tables to an automatically generated
syscall table in CSV format
* Update the syscall tables to Linux v5.8.0-rc5
* Python bindings and build now default to Python 3.x
* Improvements to the tests have boosted code coverage to over 93%
Update to release 2.4.3:
* Add list of authorized release signatures to README.md
* Fix multiplexing issue with s390/s390x shm* syscalls
* Remove the static flag from libseccomp tools compilation
* Add define for __SNR_ppoll
* Fix potential memory leak identified by clang in the
scmp_bpf_sim tool
Update to release 2.4.2:
* Add support for io-uring related system calls
Update to new upstream release 2.4.1:
* Fix a BPF generation bug where the optimizer mistakenly
identified duplicate BPF code blocks.
Updated to 2.4.0 (bsc#1128828 CVE-2019-9893):
- Update the syscall table for Linux v5.0-rc5
- Added support for the SCMP_ACT_KILL_PROCESS action
- Added support for the SCMP_ACT_LOG action and SCMP_FLTATR_CTL_LOG attribute
- Added explicit 32-bit (SCMP_AX_32(...)) and 64-bit (SCMP_AX_64(...)) argument comparison macros to help protect against unexpected sign extension
- Added support for the parisc and parisc64 architectures
- Added the ability to query and set the libseccomp API level via seccomp_api_get(3) and seccomp_api_set(3)
- Return -EDOM on an endian mismatch when adding an architecture to a filter
- Renumber the pseudo syscall number for subpage_prot() so it no longer conflicts with spu_run()
- Fix PFC generation when a syscall is prioritized, but no rule exists
- Numerous fixes to the seccomp-bpf filter generation code
- Switch our internal hashing function to jhash/Lookup3 to MurmurHash3
- Numerous tests added to the included test suite, coverage now at ~92%
- Update our Travis CI configuration to use Ubuntu 16.04
- Numerous documentation fixes and updates
Update to release 2.3.3:
* Updated the syscall table for Linux v4.15-rc7
Update to release 2.3.2:
* Achieved full compliance with the CII Best Practices program
* Added Travis CI builds to the GitHub repository
* Added code coverage reporting with the "--enable-code-coverage" configure
flag and added Coveralls to the GitHub repository
* Updated the syscall tables to match Linux v4.10-rc6+
* Support for building with Python v3.x
* Allow rules with the -1 syscall if the SCMP\_FLTATR\_API\_TSKIP attribute is
set to true
* Several small documentation fixes
