This updated addresses a minor security vulnerability in the Sun RPC client (CVE-2016-4429), increases compatibility with GCC 6, and addresses a problem which caused fork to crash when BIND_NOW was used for linking shared objects.

Note that Tenable Network Security has extracted the preceding description block directly from the Fedora update system website.
Tenable has attempted to automatically clean and format it as much as possible without introducing additional issues.
