Summary: gssproxy security update

Details: This is a proxy for GSSAPI which deals with credential handling.\r\n\r\n Security Fix(es):\r\n\r\n ** DISPUTED ** gssproxy (aka gss-proxy) before 0.8.3 does not unlock cond_mutex before pthread exit in gp_worker_main() in gp_workers.c. NOTE: An upstream comment states "We are already on a shutdown path when running the code in question, so a DoS there doesn't make any sense, and there has been no additional information provided us (as upstream) to indicate why this would be a problem."(CVE-2020-12658)\r\n\r\n
