Security is important in enterprise scenarios, where core business applications need to run seamlessly but are often connected to the external world where they are vulnerable to attack.Malware, unauthorized access to files and execution of unverified code are just some examples of how system security can be compromised, not only by exploiting known bugs and vulnerabilities, but also by the lack of appropriate countermeasures.Red Hat Enterprise Linux (RHEL) can help, as it provides some tools and services that can natively support the process of system hardening to help make your system more se

Cloud service providers are getting better at protecting data, pushing adversaries to develop new cloud ransomware scripts to target PHP applications, a new report says.

### Impact s2n-tls uses the Linux atexit function to register functions that clean up the global state when the process exits. In multi-threaded environments, the atexit handler may clean up state which is still in use by other threads. When this occurs, the exiting process may experience a segmentation fault or other undefined behavior. Customers of AWS services do not need to take action. Applications using s2n-tls should upgrade to the most recent release of s2n-tls. **Impacted versions**: < v1.5.9. ### Patches The patch commit [493b771](https://github.com/aws/s2n-tls/commit/493b77167dc367c394de23cfe78a029298e2a254) is included in s2n-tls v1.5.9 [1] ### Workarounds The atexit handler may be disabled by calling `s2n_disable_atexit()` prior to initializing s2n-tls. The atexit handler is off by default in the patched versions.
