Synopsis

The remote Fedora host is missing a security update.

Description

Update to version 0.225.2, see http://metadata.ftp-master.debian.org/changelogs//main/p/pbuilder/pbui lder_0.225.2_changelog for details.

----

This update fixes a potential security issue where copy-on-write does not work when used with eatmydata, resulting in persistent filesystem changes.

Tenable has attempted to automatically clean and format it as much as possible without introducing additional issues.
