Recommended update for sssd


Type: recommended
Severity: important
Issued: 2026-05-11
Description:
This update for sssd fixes the following issues:

- With the 2.10 update sssd runs under unprivileged user which is not possible in certain scenarios.
  This update reverts to run as root with minimum privileges (bsc#1259436);
- Let krb5 child tolerate missing capabilities;
- Add support for UsrEtc; (bsc#1257643);
- The default configuration file is installed now in /usr/etc/sssd/sssd.conf.
  It can be completely overridden by manually creating the system specific config file
  /etc/sssd/sssd.conf, or partially overridden by creating config snippets in
  /etc/sssd/conf.d/ directory. Check sssd.conf manpage for more details.
- Fix ldap_child process started by the backend process ending in defunc state.
- Create the secrets directory for the KCM service; (bsc#1259253);
- Make sure previously rotated logs are chown-ed as well (bsc#1259475);
- Use %pre scriptlet instead of %pretrans to migrate from sssd-common (bsc#1257509);
- Update to release 2.10.2; (jsc#PED-12449):
    * If the ssh responder is not running, sss_ssh_knownhosts will not fail.
    * SSSD is now capable of handling multiple services associated with the same port.
    * sssd_pam, being a privileged binary, now clears the environment and
      does not allow configuration of the PR_SET_DUMPABLE flag as a precaution.
- Changes from sssd 2.10.1:
    * SSSD does not create anymore missing path components of DIR:/FILE:
      ccache types while acquiring user's TGT.
    * The option default_domain_suffix is deprecated.
- Changes from sssd 2.10.0:
    * The ``sssctl cache-upgrade`` command was removed.
      SSSD performs automatic upgrades at startup when needed.
    * Support of ``enumeration`` feature for AD/IPA providers is deprecated and
      might be removed in further releases.
    * The new tool ``sss_ssh_knownhosts`` can be used with ssh's ``KnownHostsCommand`` configuration option
      to retrieve the host's public keys from a remote server. It replaces ```sss_ssh_knownhostsproxy``.
    * The default value for ``ldap_id_use_start_tls`` changed from false to true for improved security.
- Fix socket activation of responders
- Daemon runs now as unprivileged user 'sssd'
- Fix sssctl config-check exit code when the conf.d snippets directory does not exist (bsc#1230348);
