"This update includes no changes to NetworkManager but ensures that the
latest update is installed to fix a security issue in
NetworkManager-0.8.999-3.git20110526. This issue was previously fixed
in NetworkManager-0.8.9997-1.git20110531.fc15 but was not marked as a
security update.

NetworkManager-0.8.999-3.git20110526 inadvertently included a piece of
debugging code that may have logged some VPN passwords to syslog. That
version was available as an update for five (5) days before the fixed
version was available. Users are advised to inspect log files in
/var/log (and any backups) for VPN passwords and remove any that are
found. The string 'destroy_one_secret' may be used to identify files
to be cleaned, such as by using the following command: 'grep -riI
'destroy_one_secret' /var/log'.

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