Synopsis

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

Description

 - An issue was discovered in OpenStack Sushy-Tools through 0.21.0 and VirtualBMC through 2.2.2. Changing the boot device configuration with these packages removes password protection from the managed libvirt XML domain. NOTE: this only affects an unsupported, production-like configuration.
