The remote host is missing an update for the 'gdisk' package(s) announced via the USN-5262-1 advisory. The potential for an out of bounds write due to a missing bounds check was discovered to impact the sgdisk utility of GPT fdisk. Exploitation requires the use of a maliciously formatted storage device and could cause sgdisk to crash as well as possibly allow for local privilege escalation
