Synopsis

The remote Debian host is missing a security update.

Description

debian-security-support, the Debian security support coverage checker, has been updated in stretch-security.

This marks the end of life of the mongodb package in stretch due to licence incompatibility.

See https://lists.debian.org/debian-lts/2020/11/msg00058.html and https://bugs.debian.org/915537 for more information.

For Debian 9 stretch, this problem has been documented in version 1:9+2020.12.04 of the debian-security-support package.

NOTE: Tenable Network Security has extracted the preceding description block directly from the DLA security advisory. Tenable has attempted to automatically clean and format it as much as possible without introducing additional issues.

Solution

Upgrade the affected debian-security-support package.
