Though it's still worth noting that 1.7.5 has been EOL for 2
years (2017-01-16, per https://www.elastic.co/support/eol).
There's around 15 CVE's since that release (whether 1.7.x
is vulnerable to any/all of them is another matter).

It doesn't seem like the Fedora packages are being actively
maintained.  There's been no substanative commits in the
past 3 years.
