  • Command equivalents - yum to dnf

    Posted on

    I have a wrapper script for updates that I have had since RHEL 5.

    It uses commands from the yum-security package to list available and installed security fixes.

    I found dnf equivalents for some, but not all.

    Output of

    dnf updateinfo list --security --available
    

    appears equivalent to

    yum list-security
    

    Output of

    dnf updateinfo list --security --installed
    

    appears equivalent to

    yum updateinfo security installed
    

    What I cannot find is something that outputs a list of CVEs that are covered the way

    yum updateinfo cves installed
    

    does for RHEL 7

    Any clues out there ?
