Summary:	The remote host is missing an update for the 'cloud-init' package(s) announced via the MGASA-2020-0295 advisory.
Description:	Summary: The remote host is missing an update for the 'cloud-init' package(s) announced via the MGASA-2020-0295 advisory. Vulnerability Insight: In cloud-init, relies on Mersenne Twister for a random password, which makes it easier for attackers to predict passwords, because rand_str in cloudinit/util.py calls the random.choice function (CVE-2020-8631). In cloud-init, rand_user_password in cloudinit/config/cc_set_passwords.py has a small default pwlen value, which makes it easier for attackers to guess passwords (CVE-2020-8632). Affected Software/OS: 'cloud-init' package(s) on Mageia 7. Solution: Please install the updated package(s). CVSS Score: 2.1 CVSS Vector: AV:L/AC:L/Au:N/C:P/I:N/A:N
