Synopsis

The remote Fedora host is missing a security update.

Description

This is a bugfix-only version containing a security fix: Remove cookies from $_REQUEST for better coexistence with other applications, thanks to Richard Cunningham. See PMASA-2008-1.

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.
