high Nessus Plugin ID 70826

Language:

Synopsis

The remote Fedora host is missing a security update.

Description

This updates accountsservice to the latest release, which among other things, fixes the lock screen in GNOME in certain remote-user setups that didn't work previously.

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 accountsservice package.
