Synopsis

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

Description

The remote Fedora 41 host has a package installed that is affected by a vulnerability as referenced in the FEDORA-2025-bbabead4d7 advisory.

## New

* ASPA support is now always compiled in and available if `enable-aspa` is set. The `aspa` Cargo feature has been removed. ([#990])
* If merging mutliple ASPA objects for a single customer ASN results in more than 16,380 provider ASNs, the ASPA is dropped. (Note that ASPA objects with more than 16,380 provider ASNs are already rejected during parsing.) ([#996])
* New `archive-stats` command that shows some statistics of an RRDP archive. ([#982])
* Re-enabled the use of GZIP compression in HTTP request sent by the RRDP collector. Measures to deal with exploding data have been implemented in [rpki-rs#319]. ([#997])

## Bug fixes

* Fixed an issue with checking the file names in manifests that let to a crash when non-ASCII characters are used. ([rpki-rs#320], reported by Haya Schulmann and Niklas Vogel of Goethe University Frankfurt/ATHENE Center and assigned [CVE-2025-0638])
* The validation HTTP endpoints now accept prefixes with non-zero host bits. ([#987])
* Removed duplicate `rtr_client_reset_queries` in HTTP metrics. ([#992] by [@sleinen])
* Improved disk space consumption of the new RRDP archives by re-using empty space when updating an object and padding all objects to a multiple of 256 bytes. ([#982])
