Recommended Security Updates for CentOS 7

Post by RichH »

OTRS 6.0.20
CentOS 7.3.1611
MariaDB 5.5.60
Perl 5.16.3

Hi,

What is recommended for CentOS 7 Security updates when running OTRS 6?

Should I install the yum-plugin-security and run 'yum update --security' on a regular basis?

Would setting up Yum_Cron for security updates be recommended per this article?

Any advice would be greatly appreciated!

Thanks,
Rich

I guess you have some security guidelines in your headquarter how to keep a linux system up to date.

Also you should follow the OTRS patchlevels as you are already missing several ((OTRS)) Community Edition security fixes. (Actual version is 6.0.25, on friday the next patch will be released)
"Production": OTRS™ 8, OTRS™ 7, STORM powered by OTRS
"Testing": ((OTRS Community Edition)) and git Master
