Vulnerability Discussion

"nfs-utils" provides a daemon for the kernel Network File System (NFS) server and related tools. This package also contains the "showmount" program. "showmount" queries the mount daemon on a remote host for information about the NFS server on the remote host. For example, "showmount" can display the clients that are mounted on that host.

Check

Remove the nfs-utils package with the following command:

$ dnf remove nfs-utils

Fix

$ dnf list --installed nfs-utils
