Synopsis

The remote Fedora host is missing a security update.

Description

https://github.com/projectatomic/rpm-ostree/releases/tag/v2017.3

This release includes a fix for [CVE-2017-2623](https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1422157).

There are a few new features, such as `systemctl reload rpm-ostreed` now being supported. Some bugfixes such as memory leak fixes. Besides that, there's a lot of internal refactoring going on in preparation for work on local RPM installation.

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

Solution

Update the affected rpm-ostree package.
