MDVA-2008:009 : rpmdrake

high Nessus Plugin ID 36574

Synopsis

The remote Mandriva host is missing one or more security-related patches.

Description

When listing updates to install MandrivaUpdate performs a consistency check of the package set to install. At this stage, MandrivaUpdate was automatically selecting updated packages from non update media, as shown in the confirmation dialog. This behaviour was wrong especially due to the backports media.

This update corrects the issues.

Solution

Update the affected package(s).
