Fedora 23 : cryptobone (2016-3ecd34d592)

high Nessus Plugin ID 92878

Synopsis

The remote Fedora host is missing a security update.

Description

This is a major update that re-organizes the Crypto Bone daemon to include all message encryption and decryption code. This obsoletes the openpgp binary. In addition, the private cryptlib library has been reduced in size considerably.

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

Solution

Update the affected cryptobone package.
