Category:Fedora Local Security Checks
Title:Fedora: Security Advisory for fastd (FEDORA-2020-01dc2bc62c)
Summary:The remote host is missing an update for the 'fastd'; package(s) announced via the FEDORA-2020-01dc2bc62c advisory.
Description:Summary:
The remote host is missing an update for the 'fastd'
package(s) announced via the FEDORA-2020-01dc2bc62c advisory.

Vulnerability Insight:
fastd is a secure tunneling daemon with some unique features:

- Very small binary (about 100KB on OpenWRT in the default configuration,
including all dependencies besides libc)

- Exchangeable crypto methods

- Transport over UDP for simple usage behind NAT

- Can run in 1:1 and 1:n scenarios

- There are no server and client roles defined by the protocol, this is just
defined by the usage.

- Only one instance of the daemon is needed on each host to create a full mesh
If no full mesh is established, a routing protocol is necessary to enable
hosts that are not connected directly to reach each other

Affected Software/OS:
'fastd' package(s) on Fedora 31.

Solution:
Please install the updated package(s).

CVSS Score:
5.0
