Vulnerability Discussion

"nfs-utils" provides a daemon for the kernel 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 Network File System (NFS) server on the remote host. For example, "showmount" can display the clients that are mounted on that host.

Verify that OL 9 does not have the nfs-utils package installed with the following command:

$ dnf list --installed nfs-utils
Error: No matching Packages to list

If the "nfs-utils" package is installed, this is a finding.
