To update installed packages for security on CentOS 8\/9, you can use the yum command as the root user or with sudo.<\/p>\n

    \n
  1. Update the package index by running the command sudo yum update<\/code>. This command will update all installed packages to the latest version.<\/li>\n
  2. You can also update specific packages by providing the package name after the update command. For example, sudo yum update httpd<\/code> will update the Apache httpd package.<\/li>\n
  3. Another option is to update only security-related packages by running the command sudo yum update --security<\/code>.<\/li>\n
  4. To check for updates on a regular basis, you can use the command sudo yum check-update<\/code> or install yum-cron package and configure it to automatically update your system with sudo yum install yum-cron; sudo systemctl enable --now yum-cron<\/code>.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

    Note: Before updating packages, it is recommended to take a backup of your system and important files, and test updates in a development environment.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
