MDVA-2010:100 : rootcerts

high Nessus Plugin ID 45058

Synopsis

The remote Mandriva host is missing one or more security-related patches.

Description

The Adobe Flash plugin has https support, but only searches for SSL certificates in /etc/ssl/certs. This advisory provides a compatibility symlink at /etc/ssl/certs pointing to /etc/pki/tls/certs to remedy this problem.

Additionally this advisory also brings the latest root CA certs from the mozilla cvs dated 2010-02-16. The mozilla nss library has consequently been rebuilt to pickup these changes and are also being provided.

Packages for 2008.0 are provided for Corporate Desktop 2008.0 customers.

Solution

Update the affected package(s).
