high Nessus Plugin ID 106011

Language:

Synopsis

The remote Fedora host is missing a security update.

Description

Changes since MRBS 1.6.1 :

 - Fixed a number of security issues in MRBS that were disclosed to the project by SySS GmbH, including XSS, CSRF protection and session fixation.

 - Improved behaviour of browser caching in MRBS.

 - Improved localisation, especially the use of colons in labels.

 - Added new config variable $weekdays to define weekdays and weekends, allowing for the possibility that weekdays are not the same as working days.

 - MRBS now restricts form actions which modify data/pass passwords to only accept POSTs.

 - Added the ability to have different period names in each area.

 - Add SAML auth and session schemes, thanks to Jørn Åne.

 - Updated to jQuery 3.2.1 and jQueryUI 1.12.1, which includes XSS fixes.

 - Plus a few other bug fixes/improvements.

 - Dropped support for Internet Explorer 9 and lower.

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 mrbs package.
