   An update that solves one vulnerability and has 9 fixes is
   now available.

Description:

   This update for systemd fixes the following issues:

   - CVE-2020-1712 (bsc#bsc#1162108) Fix a heap use-after-free vulnerability,
     when asynchronous Polkit queries were performed while handling Dbus
     messages. A local unprivileged attacker could have abused this flaw to
     crash systemd services or potentially execute code and elevate their
     privileges, by sending specially crafted Dbus messages.

   - Unconfirmed fix for prevent hanging of systemctl during restart.
     (bsc#1139459)
   - Fix warnings thrown during package installation. (bsc#1154043)
   - Fix for system-udevd prevent crash within OES2018. (bsc#1151506)
   - Fragments of masked units ought not be considered for
     'NeedDaemonReload'. (bsc#1156482)
   - Wait for workers to finish when exiting. (bsc#1106383)
   - Improve log message when inotify limit is reached. (bsc#1155574)
   - Mention in the man pages that alias names are only effective after
     command 'systemctl enable'. (bsc#1151377)
   - Introduce function for reading virtual files in 'sysfs' and 'procfs'.
     (bsc#1133495, bsc#1159814)
