ca-certificates update
==========================================================================

A security issue affects these releases of Ubuntu and its derivatives:

- Ubuntu 20.10
- Ubuntu 20.04 LTS
- Ubuntu 18.04 LTS
- Ubuntu 16.04 LTS

Summary:

The CA certificates in the ca-certificates package were updated.

Software Description:
- ca-certificates: Common CA certificates

Details:

The ca-certificates package contained outdated CA certificates. This update
refreshes the included certificates to those contained in the 2.44 version
of the Mozilla certificate authority bundle.

Update instructions:

The problem can be corrected by updating your system to the following
package versions:

Ubuntu 20.10:
  ca-certificates                 20201027ubuntu0.20.10.1

Ubuntu 20.04 LTS:
  ca-certificates                 20201027ubuntu0.20.04.1

Ubuntu 18.04 LTS:
  ca-certificates                 20201027ubuntu0.18.04.1

Ubuntu 16.04 LTS:
  ca-certificates                 20201027ubuntu0.16.04.1

In general, a standard system update will make all the necessary changes.
