RHSA-2003-177: rhn_register Vulnerability Scan
Vulnerability Scan Summary Check for the version of the rhn_register packages
Detailed Explanation for this Vulnerability Test
Updated versions of the rhn_register and up2date packages are now
available. The new packages include many bug fixes, and a few new features.
The rhn_register and up2date packages contain the software necessary to
take advantage of Red Hat Network functionality.
The up2date package incorporates improvements in handling package
dependencies and "obsoletes" processing, along with many other bug fixes.
This release also includes an updated RHNS-CA-CERT file, which contains an
additional CA certificate. This is needed so that up2date can continue to
communicate with Red Hat Network once the current CA certificate reaches
its August 2003 expiration date.
All users of Red Hat Network should therefore upgrade to these erratum
packages.
