Description:Summary:
The remote host is missing an update for the 'netcf'
package(s) announced via the referenced advisory.

Vulnerability Insight:
The netcf packages contain a library for
modifying the network configuration of a system. Network configuration is expressed
in a platform-independent XML format, which netcf translates into changes to the

name could cause an application using netcf (such as the libvirt daemon) to
crash. (CVE-2014-8119)

This issue was discovered by Hao Liu of Red Hat.

The netcf packages have been upgraded to upstream version 0.2.8, which
provides a number of bug fixes and enhancements over the previous version.

Users of netcf are advised to upgrade to these updated packages, which fix
these bugs and add these enhancements.

Affected Software/OS:
netcf on Red Hat Enterprise Linux Server (v. 7)
