From ${URL} : Chad Vizino reported a flaw in the TORQUE Resource Manager that would allow non-root users to kill any process, including root-owned ones on any node in a job: http://seclists.org/oss-sec/2014/q4/75 The fixes in the 4.2 branch appear applicable to the version of TORQUE in Fedora and EPEL: https://github.com/adaptivecomputing/torque/commit/f2f4c950f3d461a249111c8826da3beaafccace9 https://github.com/adaptivecomputing/torque/commit/967cdc80150690459a47a35a658abeee0ca6e5cb @maintainer(s): after the bump, in case we need to stabilize the package, please let us know if it is ready for the stabilization or not.
