Synopsis

The remote Fedora host is missing a security update.

Description

- New upstream release

 - Actually reload the DFU device after upgrade has completed

 - Capture the dock SKU in report metadata

 - Correctly set the Logitech device protocol

 - Do not use shim for non-secure boot configurations

 - Ensure that the DeviceID is set for child devices

 - Fix an error when detaching MSP430

 - Fix the DeviceID set by GetDetails

 - Force the prometheus minor version from 0x02 to 0x01

 - Parse the CSR firmware as a DFU file

 - Prevent dell-dock updates to occur via synaptics-mst plugin

 - Rather than hardcoding thunderbolt to PCI slot numbers, use domain in GUID

 - Remove a dock device from the whitelist that is never going to be updated

 - Validate that gpgme_op_verify_result() returned at least one signature

 - Wait for the cxaudio device to reboot after writing firmware

 - Fixes CVE-2020-10759

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.
