Synopsis

The remote Fedora host is missing a security update.

Description

- Add upstream fix for improper sanitization of shell-escape codes when lldptool parses a mngAddr TLV (CVE-2018-10932).

 - Add upstream patch to support DSCP selectors in APP TLVs. This allows configuration of DSCP-based packet prioritization on capable network devices.

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 lldpad package.
