Language:

Synopsis

The remote Fedora host is missing a security update.

Description

Another day, another chromium update. This one fixes :

CVE-2020-6458 CVE-2020-6459 CVE-2020-6460

----

Fix dependency issue introduced when switching from a 'shared' build to a 'static' build.

----

A new major version of Chromium without any security bugs! Just kidding. Here's the CVE list :

CVE-2020-6454 CVE-2020-6423 CVE-2020-6455 CVE-2020-6430 CVE-2020-6456 CVE-2020-6431 CVE-2020-6433 CVE-2020-6434 CVE-2020-6435 CVE-2020-6436 CVE-2020-6437 CVE-2020-6438 CVE-2020-6439 CVE-2020-6440 CVE-2020-6441 CVE-2020-6442 CVE-2020-6443 CVE-2020-6444 CVE-2020-6445 CVE-2020-6446 CVE-2020-6447 CVE-2020-6448 CVE-2020-6432 CVE-2020-6457

Oh, and this build switches over to a static build, so the chromium-libs and chromium-libs-media subpackages are now obsolete, but it should be slightly better for performance.

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 chromium package.
