Fedora 20 : fedup-0.9.0-1.fc20 (2014-14027)

low Nessus Plugin ID 78812

Language:

Synopsis

The remote Fedora host is missing a security update.

Description

- Adds `--product=PRODUCT` flag, required for upgrades to F21

 - Uses host's config files in `upgrade.img`, which should fix various upgrade problems (e.g. incorrect keyboard layout when unlocking disks due to missing `vconsole.conf`)

 - Logging improvements: complete upgrade log should appear in system journal

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 fedup package.
