 puppet-2.6.6-2.fc15 (FEDORA-2011-13520)
 A network tool for managing many disparate systems
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Update Information:

A vulnerability was discovered in puppet that would allow an attacker to install a valid X509 Certificate Signing Request at any location on disk, with the privileges of the Puppet Master application.  For Fedora and EPEL, this is the puppet user.

Further details can be found in the upstream announcement:

http://groups.google.com/group/puppet-users/browse_thread/thread/e57ce2740feb9406

Unless you enable puppet's listen mode on clients, only the puppet master is vulnerable to this issue.
