Security update for salt
This update for salt fixes the following issues: - Avoid possible user escalation upgrading salt-master (bsc#1157465) (CVE-2019-18897) - Fix unit tests failures in test_batch_async tests - Batch Async: Handle exceptions, properly unregister and close instances after running async batching to avoid CPU starvation of the MWorkers (bsc#1162327) - RHEL/CentOS 8 uses platform-python instead of python3 - New configuration option for selection of grains in the minion start event. - Fix 'os_family' grain for Astra Linux Common Edition - Fix for salt-api NET API where unauthenticated attacker could run arbitrary code (CVE-2019-17361) (bsc#1162504) - Adds disabled parameter to mod_repo in aptpkg module Move token with atomic operation Bad API token files get deleted (bsc#1160931) - Support for Btrfs and XFS in parted and mkfs added - Adds list_downloaded for apt Module to enable pre-downloading support Adds virt.(pool|network)_get_xml functions - Various libvirt updates: * Add virt.pool_capabilities function * virt.pool_running improvements * Add virt.pool_deleted state * virt.network_define allow adding IP configuration - virt: adding kernel boot parameters to libvirt xml - Fix to scheduler when data['run'] does not exist (bsc#1159118) - Fix virt states to not fail on VMs already stopped - Fix applying of attributes for returner rawfile_json (bsc#1158940) - xfs: do not fail if type is not present (bsc#1153611) - Fix errors when running virt.get_hypervisor function - Align virt.full_info fixes with upstream Salt - Fix for log checking in x509 test - Read repo info without using interpolation (bsc#1135656) - Limiting M2Crypto to >= SLE15 - Replacing pycrypto with M2Crypto (bsc#1165425) This update was imported from the SUSE:SLE-15-SP1:Update update project.
