According to the versions of the exiv2 package installed, the EulerOS installation on the remote host is affected by the following vulnerabilities :

  - Exiv2 0.26 has a heap-based buffer over-read in     WebPImage::decodeChunks in     webpimage.cpp.(CVE-2018-14046)

  - There is a heap-based buffer over-read in the     Exiv2::tEXtToDataBuf function of pngimage.cpp in Exiv2     0.27-RC3. A crafted input will lead to a remote denial     of service attack.(CVE-2018-20096)

  - There is a heap-based buffer over-read in     Exiv2::Jp2Image::encodeJp2Header of jp2image.cpp in     Exiv2 0.27-RC3. A crafted input will lead to a remote     denial of service attack.(CVE-2018-20098)

  - There is an infinite loop in     Exiv2::Jp2Image::encodeJp2Header of jp2image.cpp in     Exiv2 0.27-RC3. A crafted input will lead to a remote     denial of service attack.(CVE-2018-20099)

  - A PngChunk::parseChunkContent uncontrolled memory     allocation in Exiv2 through 0.27.1 allows an attacker     to cause a denial of service (crash due to an     std::bad_alloc exception) via a crafted PNG image     file.(CVE-2019-13112)

  - CiffDirectory::readDirectory() at crwimage_int.cpp in     Exiv2 0.26 has excessive stack consumption due to a     recursive function, leading to Denial of     service.(CVE-2018-17581)

  - In Exiv2 0.26 and previous versions,     PngChunk::readRawProfile in pngchunk_int.cpp may cause     a denial of service (application crash due to a     heap-based buffer over-read) via a crafted PNG     file.(CVE-2018-19535)

  - In types.cpp in Exiv2 0.26, a large size value may lead     to a SIGABRT during an attempt at memory allocation for     an Exiv2::Internal::PngChunk::zlibUncompress     call.(CVE-2018-10958)

  - An issue was discovered in Exiv2 0.26. readMetadata in     jp2image.cpp allows remote attackers to cause a denial     of service (SIGABRT) by triggering an incorrect     Safe::add call.(CVE-2018-10998)

  - An issue was discovered in Exiv2 0.26. The     Exiv2::Internal::PngChunk::parseTXTChunk function has a     heap-based buffer over-read.(CVE-2018-10999)

  - In Exiv2 0.26, Exiv2::PsdImage::readMetadata in     psdimage.cpp in the PSD image reader may suffer from a     denial of service (infinite loop) caused by an integer     overflow via a crafted PSD image file.(CVE-2018-19108)

  - In Exiv2 0.26, Exiv2::IptcParser::decode in iptc.cpp     (called from psdimage.cpp in the PSD image reader) may     suffer from a denial of service (heap-based buffer     over-read) caused by an integer overflow via a crafted     PSD image file.(CVE-2018-19107)

  - An issue was discovered in Exiv2 v0.26. The function     Exiv2::DataValue::copy in value.cpp has a NULL pointer     dereference.(CVE-2018-17282)

  - exiv2 0.26 contains a Stack out of bounds read in webp     parser(CVE-2017-1000126)

  - In Exiv2 0.26, there is a heap-based buffer over-read     in the Exiv2::Image::byteSwap4 function in image.cpp.
    Remote attackers can exploit this vulnerability to     disclose memory data or cause a denial of service via a     crafted TIFF file.(CVE-2017-17723)

  - Exiv2 0.26 has a heap-based buffer overflow in getData     in preview.cpp.(CVE-2018-11531)
