Notes
Title of the patch: Security update for python-azure-agent
Description of the patch: This update for python-azure-agent fixes the following issues:
python-azure-agent was updated to version 2.2.45 (jsc#ECO-80)
+ Add support for Gen2 VM resource disks
+ Use alternate systemd detection
+ Fix /proc/net/route requirement that causes errors on FreeBSD
+ Add cloud-init auto-detect to prevent multiple provisioning mechanisms
from relying on configuration for coordination
+ Disable cgroups when daemon is setup incorrectly
+ Remove upgrade extension loop for the same goal state
+ Add container id for extension telemetry events
+ Be more exact when detecting IMDS service health
+ Changing add_event to start sending missing fields
From 2.2.44 update:
+ Remove outdated extension ZIP packages
+ Improved error handling when starting extensions using systemd
+ Reduce provisioning time of some custom images
+ Improve the handling of extension download errors
+ New API for extension authors to handle errors during extension update
+ Fix handling of errors in calls to openssl
+ Improve logic to determine current distro
+ Reduce verbosity of several logging statements
From 2.2.42 update:
+ Poll for artifact blob, addresses goal state procesing issue
From 2.2.41 update:
+ Rewriting the mechanism to start the extension using systemd-run for
systems using systemd for managing
+ Refactoring of resource monitoring framework using cgroup for both
systemd and non-systemd approaches [#1530, #1534]
+ Telemetry pipeline for resource monitoring data
From 2.2.40 update:
+ Fixed tracking of memory/cpu usage
+ Do not prevent extensions from running if setting up cgroups fails
+ Enable systemd-aware deprovisioning on all versions >= 18.04
+ Add systemd support for Debian Jessie, Stretch, and Buster
+ Support for Linux Openwrt
From 2.2.38 update:
Security issue fixed:
+ CVE-2019-0804: An issue with swapfile handling in the agent creates
a data leak situation that exposes system memory data. (bsc#1127838)
+ Add fixes for handling swap file and other nit fixes
From 2.2.37 update:
+ Improves re-try logic to handle errors while downloading extensions
