    The keepalived utility provides simple and robust facilities for load balancing and high availability. The     load balancing framework relies on the well-known and widely used IP Virtual Server (IPVS) kernel module     providing layer-4 (transport layer) load balancing. Keepalived implements a set of checkers to dynamically     and adaptively maintain and manage a load balanced server pool according to the health of the servers.
    Keepalived also implements the Virtual Router Redundancy Protocol (VRRPv2) to achieve high availability     with director failover.

    Security Fix(es):

    * keepalived: Integer overflow vulnerability in vrrp_ipsets_handler (CVE-2024-41184)
