Fedora 20 : check-mk-1.2.4p2-2.fc20 (2014-6810)

medium Nessus Plugin ID 74388

Synopsis

The remote Fedora host is missing a security update.

Description

- Install the mk-job binary on /usr/bin.

- Make sure the proper permissions are given to /var/lib/check_mk_agent/job to prevent any hard or symlink to be created by a normal user and pointing to any file on the filesystem exposing it on the check-mk-agent output being run as root.

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 check-mk package.
