   An update that has two recommended fixes can now be
   installed.

Description:


   The audit daemon (auditd) would leak memory when
   log_format=NOLOG was  specified in /etc/audit/auditd.conf.
   This configuration is typically used  when forwarding log
   information to other hosts via the network rather than
   performing local logging.

   In addition, auditctl would fail to parse negative
   arguments for a0-a3  rules.

Contraindications:
