Synopsis

The remote Fedora host is missing a security update.

Description

- Security bug fix: remote Gadu-Gadu file relay servers could cause a denial of service (memory overwrite) or possibly execute arbitrary code via a crafted message (CVE-2014-3775).

 - Fixes related to image transfers.

 - Regression test reliability fixes.

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.
