Hello,

This email is a status update on Scientific Linux 7.4.

The Scientific Linux 7.4 Release Candidate was published on August 28 
2017.  There is a serious bug in the upstream provided iptables and 
ip6tables services[1] which may result in the firewall being disabled 
rather than enabled.

The Scientific Linux team considers this to be a release blocking issue.

We are following the upstream bug reports closely and have published a 
SL bugfix package in the 'sl-testing'[2] repo.  If an official fix is 
not forthcoming soon, we will consider building the SL bugfix package 
into the release.

Thanks,

Scientific Linux Team
