Fedora 19 : systemd-204-15.fc19 (2013-17119)

medium Nessus Plugin ID 70046

Synopsis

The remote Fedora host is missing a security update.

Description

Fixes polkit authentication issue. Updates the hardware database (including keyboard mappings) to the latest version from upstream.
Backport a bunch of fixes from upstream. Only a few correspond to bug reports, and others correct display issues, memory access, and correctness of operation.

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 systemd package.
