This update addresses two security vulnerabilities:
* CVE-2025-0395: A buffer overflow may occur in the assert function with certain large program names and assert expressions.
* CVE-2025-0577: getrandom, arc4random can produce predictable randomness if a multi-threaded program creates additional threads after fork.
The following non-security bugs are fixed:
* Compatibility with certain programs that call free(environ) is improved (however, deallocating environ remains undefined in general).
* Crashes in string functions on certain hypervisors that report L3 cache sizes above 4 GiB are avoided.
* Poor performance of x86-64 string functions in certain cases.
* Initialization of the restartable sequence area now follows recommended practices.
Updates may require up to 24 hours to propagate to mirrors. If the following command doesn't work, please retry later:
sudo dnf upgrade --refresh --advisory=FEDORA-2025-69207650a4
