+summary: 'Cockpit with SELinux, Virtual Machines and Podman Containers improvements'
+---
+
+Cockpit is the [modern Linux admin interface](https://cockpit-project.org/).
+We release regularly.
+
+Here are the release notes from Cockpit 253 and cockpit-machines 252 and cockpit-podman 35:
+
+
+## SELinux: Dismiss multiple alerts
+
+SELinux alerts can now be selected and dismissed in bulk, which is simpler than having to expand and dismiss them individualy. Having a clean alert state is especially helpful when building policies, as newer alerts become more obvious.
