Only allow Administrator's group and SYSTEM user access to C:\salt. This
eliminates a race condition where a non-admin user could modify a template or
managed file before it is executed by the minion (which is running as an
elevated user), thus avoiding a potential escalation of privileges. (6361)
Quieted warning about SALT_MINION_CONFIG environment variable on
minion startup and for CLI commands run via salt-call (5956)
Added minion config parameter random_reauth_delay to stagger
re-auth attempts when the minion is waiting for the master to approve its
public key. This helps prevent SYN flooding in larger environments.
Fixed inaccurate reporting of results in service.running states when the service fails to start (5894)
Fixed handling of custom initscripts in RHEL-based distros so that they are
immediately available, negating the need for a second state run to manage the
service that the initscript controls
Fixed inaccurate reporting when ssh_auth.present states are run with test=True, when
rsa/dss is used for the enc param instead of ssh-rsa/ssh-dss (5374)
