Description: Fedora has issued an update for duplicity. This fixes a security issue, which can be exploited by malicious, local users to disclose sensitive information.
The security issue is caused due to the FTP backend of duplicity passing sensitive information to ncftp via the command line. This can be exploited to disclose the password by e.g. using the "ps" command.
