Vulnerability Assessment Summary

Detailed Explanation for this Vulnerability Assessment

The remote host is missing the patch for the advisory MDKA-2004:034 (rpmdrake).

When rpmdrake would come across a package name containing the string
'-h' it would print out the help usage instead of installing or
upgrading a package.
The updated packages fix this. It is recommended that all users
upgrade immediately.
