New! Plugin Severity Now Using CVSS v3
The calculated severity for Plugins has been updated to use CVSS v3 by default. Plugins that do not have a CVSS v3 score will fall back to CVSS v2 for calculating severity. Severity display preferences can be toggled in the settings dropdown.
Synopsis
The remote Fedora host is missing a security update.Description
This update fixes: Multiple integer overflows in the imageop module (#295971) Also included are a dependency fix on binutils (#307221), so the ctypes module works, and a tkinter fix when dealing with zero length text in some widgets (#281751).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 packages.See Also
