The following packages have been upgraded to a later upstream version: ignition (2.14.0). (BZ#2090647) Security Fix(es): * ignition: configs are accessible from unprivileged containers in VMs running on VMware products (CVE-2022-1706) For more details about the security issue(s), including the impact, a CVSS score, acknowledgments, and other related information, refer to the CVE page(s) listed in the References section.
