Synopsis

The remote Fedora host is missing a security update.

Description

CVE-2016-3119, NULL dereference in LDAP module. ---- Fix an issue with return codes on `gss_inquire_attrs_for_mech`. This resolves an issue with gss-ntlmssp, and anything else that is interposing but not implementing the corresponding mechglue function.
