Synopsis

The remote Fedora host is missing one or more security updates.

Description

An update to Firefox (version 2.0.0.8) was recently pushed which resolves some security issues.

Users of Blam and Epiphany Extensions are advised to upgrade to these erratum packages, which have been rebuilt against the updated Firefox packages.

Note that Tenable Network Security has extracted the preceding description block directly from the Fedora security advisory. Tenable has attempted to automatically clean and format it as much as possible without introducing additional issues.

Solution

Update the affected packages.
