security questions: initial GPG key importing on first update

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



I wanted to call attention to this bug I just opened and ask a wider
audience for input:

https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=748320

Basically, this boils down to:

1. Do we normally automatically import GPG keys for Fedora-provided
package updates when the system is installed/upgraded?  If not, should
we?  If so, is this expected to sometimes "break" during various
phases of the software release cycle, requiring a user to manually
confirm the key import?

2. Regardless of the above, should automatic-in-the-background
Software Updates be prompting for a password, unsolicited, when the
user isn't expecting it?

Generally, are there any Release Criteria around general
security-related behavior of the distro as a whole?  Should there be?
