Synopsis

The remote Fedora host is missing a security update.

Description

Bug 603915 - znc: NULL pointer dereference flaw leads to segfault under certain conditions A Debian bug report [1] noted that ZNC would segfault under certain conditions, such as clicking 'traffic' in the webadmin pages or issuing the traffic command on the /znc shell. This has been corrected upstream [2]. This vulnerability was reported against 0.090 which is the version that Fedora provides. [1] http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=584929 [2] http://znc.svn.sourceforge.net/viewvc/znc?view=rev&revision=2026

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 znc package.
