Fedora 37 : python-m2r / python-mistune / python-mistune08 / etc (2022-e4f5866111)

high Nessus Plugin ID 211000

Synopsis

The remote Fedora host is missing one or more security updates.

Description

The remote Fedora 37 host has packages installed that are affected by a vulnerability as referenced in the FEDORA-2022-e4f5866111 advisory.

- updates `mistune` to 2.0.4
- `m2r` updated to pin dependency to `mistune < 2`
- new package: `python-mistune08` compatibility package, to be used by dependents that cannot use the new mistune (namely `nbconvert`)
- new package: `python-sphinx-typlog-theme`, needed to build `mistune` 2.x documentation

----

Compatibility package for mistune 0.8, so we can update mistune to 2x without breaking unported dependents like nbconvert


Tenable has extracted the preceding description block directly from the Fedora security advisory.

Note that Nessus has not tested for this issue but has instead relied only on the application's self-reported version number.

Solution

Update the affected packages.
