Fedora 30 : kernel / kernel-tools (2019-5b76e711b3)

critical Nessus Plugin ID 124726

Language:

Synopsis

The remote Fedora host is missing one or more security updates.

Description

The 5.0.13 update contains a number of important fixes across the tree.

There is no kernel-headers build this time. The tools version is 5.0.12 because originally it was built with the 5.0.12 kernel version but 5.0.13 was built before 5.0.12 could be filed in bodhi.

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 kernel and / or kernel-tools packages.
