The remote host is missing an update for the 'rhythmbox' package(s) announced via the USN-1503-1 advisory. Hans Spaans discovered that the Context plugin in Rhythmbox created a temporary directory in an insecure manner. A local attacker could exploit this to execute arbitrary code as the user invoking the program. The Context plugin is disabled by default in Ubuntu. Please install the updated package(s)
