Summary
Important: gpsd security update
Details

gpsd is a service daemon that mediates access to a GPS sensor connected to the host computer by serial or USB interface, making its data on the location/course/velocity of the sensor available to be queried on TCP port 2947 of the host computer. With gpsd, multiple GPS client applications (such as navigational and war-driving software) can share access to a GPS without contention or loss of data. Also, gpsd responds to queries with a format that is substantially easier to parse than NMEA 0183. The Rocky Enterprise Software Foundation support for this package is limited. See https://access.redhat.com/support/policy/gpsd-support for more details.

Security Fix(es):

  • gpsd: gpsd: Arbitrary OS command execution via code injection in gpsprof utility (CVE-2026-60122)
