SuperSU v2.78 SR1 released
This update brings primarily bugfixes to the su binary (related to suhide and Magisk compatibility), but there is one supolicy update of particular note as well:
supolicy
Due to an initialization bug, introduced in v2.68 BETA, some SELinux contexts (including shell and untrusted_app) could be granted sys_module capability. If this happens, and your kernel is compiled with module loading support (most modern stock kernels have this disabled) and an exploit is used to gain uid 0, this then allows for a complete SELinux bypass and kernel pwn.
The requirements are pretty extensive and your chances of being vulnerable are slim, but nevertheless I would recommend updating.
This fix requires SuperSU to be updated by flashing the ZIP. Updating by APK will not suffice.
SRx instead of BETA
We're moving from BETA to Service Release naming, so we can keep the version number for the next test release the same as the current stable release. So, v2.78 SR1 is what would have been v2.79 BETA before.
While this may be slightly more confusing, we need to keep the version numbers the same to reduce the effectiveness of people trying to upload the test releases to stores (many stores will not accept a version number already present). Surprisingly, this is a real problem on non-Play stores.
CCMT
Discussion regarding CCMT has suddenly (about a year late) become prominent again. There will be some announcements regarding this probably next week.

About SuperSU 2.78-SR1
SuperSU is the Superuser access management tool of the future ;)
!!! SuperSU requires a rooted device !!!

Features include:
- Superuser access prompt
- Superuser access logging
- Superuser access notifications
- Per-app notification configuration
- Temporary unroot

The Pro version additionally offers:
- OTA survival mode (no guarantees)

SUPERUSER
This is meant to replace Superuser (if installed), you use either one or the other. You cannot combine them. Statements that this breaks Superuser are therefore completely nonsensical.
NOTICE: A SPECIAL PROCEDURE IS NEEDED FOR UNINSTALLATION. IF YOU DO NOT LIKE THE APP, DO *NOT* JUST UNINSTALL IT, YOU *WILL* LOSE ROOT.
Superuser access management runs through a so called "su binary". There can be only one of these at a time. So if you install SuperSU, your previous superuser access management solution will no longer operate. So if you want to switch back: (1) Open that application, and search for an option for it to install/update/replace the "su binary". (2) Confirm root-using apps are using the superuser solution you want. (3) Uninstall SuperSU.
