Summary

The remote host is missing an update for the 'gpsd' package(s) announced via the FEDORA-2019-9a6906a128 advisory.

Insight

Insight

gpsd is a service daemon that mediates access to a GPS sensor connected to the host computer by serial or USB interface, making its data on the location/course/velocity of the sensor available to be queried on TCP port 2947 of the host computer. With gpsd, multiple GPS client applications (such as navigational and war-driving software) can share access to a GPS without contention or loss of data. Also, gpsd responds to queries with a format that is substantially easier to parse than NMEA 0183.

Affected Software

Affected Software

'gpsd' package(s) on Fedora 29.

Detection Method
