Description

Images built for the Amazon Linux 2.0.20190218 release included system files with incorrect permissions applied.

Incorrect permissions were applied to files including:/etc/fstab/etc/localtime/etc/image-id/etc/sysconfig/i18n/etc/sysconfig/clock/etc/sysconfig/keyboard/etc/sysctl.d/99-amazon.conf/var/lib/rpm/Packages All users should upgrade to this updated package which corrects permissions for these files if they are not already in the expected state. The latest Amazon Linux 2 AMIs, on-premises VM images, and Docker Hub listings already include these updates.
