Fedora 22 : nx-libs-3.5.0.32-1.fc22 (2015-11244)

high Nessus Plugin ID 85086

Synopsis

The remote Fedora host is missing a security update.

Description

Update to nx-libs 3.5.0.32 :

- Proper integration of all patches in the source tarballs. Bugs in the tarball generation script and patch file names prohibited inclusion of many patches previously, including security fixes.

- Better support for debug (DEBUG, TEST, TRACE and other directives) builds, in part thanks to Nito Martinez.

- Build fixes due to underlinking of libdl thanks to Bernard Cafarelli.

- Retroactively document correct GPLv2 licensing of previously potentially offending DXPC code.

- Help text fixups.

- Restart reading if interrupted, gets rid of 'Negotiation in stage 10' errors thanks to Vadim Troshchinskiy.

- A dozen X.Org Server fixes backported by Ulrich Sibiller.

The X2Go Project thanks Bernard Cafarelli, Nito Martinez (Qindel Group), Vadim Troshchinskiy (Qindel Group) and Ulrich Sibiller for their contributions.

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 nx-libs package.
