Fedora 19 : community-mysql-5.5.31-7.fc19 (2013-10020)

medium Nessus Plugin ID 67261

Synopsis

The remote Fedora host is missing a security update.

Description

This is an update that uses /var/tmp as default tmpdir to prevent potential issues, fixes CVE-2013-1861 and adds some missing command-line options to man-pages.

Note that Tenable Network Security has extracted the preceding description block directly from the Fedora security advisory. Tenable has attempted to automatically clean and format it as much as possible without introducing additional issues.

Solution

Update the affected community-mysql package.
