Notable changes in Son of Grid Engine
=====================================
For earlier changes (comprising Sun Grid Engine), see Changelog in the
source distribution, and the bug lists at
http://arc.liv.ac.uk/SGE/howto/Installation,%20Upgrade,%20Patches.
For detailed recent change information, including credits for changes
not listed here, see https://arc.liv.ac.uk/trac/SGE/log/sge/
"[#<n>]" below refers to ticket <n> at
https://arc.liv.ac.uk/trac/SGE/ticket/<n>. For historical reasons,
changes due to Univa/Sun are tagged as "[U]", or "[(U)]" if partially
due to them or appearing first in this version.
Version 8.1.10
--------------
* Enhancements
* submit jobs in a SystemD friendly manner.
Prerequisite:
Exec hosts must be running Linux with SystemD (tested on Centos 7)
There must be a binary "/bin/systemd-run" located on the exec hosts

version built with qsort_args (as above), which will make live

string-handling against buffer overruns -- somewhat error-prone
and may have caused regressions; more required

Version 8.0.0e

* Fix spurious messages from deleting job spool directories.
* Fix build error on Solaris 11
* Fix spec file for systems that use mandb [#1407]

* Rename status(1) to qstatus(1) to avoid name clash with upstart
* Update LICENCES with some missing items

The first fix is for a trivial remote root by a valid user. The
others, including fixes for potential buffer overruns in daemon and
setuid programs, may or may not be exploitable.
* Sanitize the environment before executing remote startup programs etc.
Somewhat incompatible: LD_LIBRARY_PATH etc. may need to be set
differently. See the security notes in remote_startup(5) and
sge_conf(5). (CVE-2012-0208, thanks to William Hay)

incompatible: initial messages now in syslog.

(Not normally a security issue.)
