SDL v1.2 was discovered to contain a use-after-free via the XFree function at /src/video/x11/SDL_x11yuv.c.

The Linux/Unix host has one or more packages installed that are impacted by a vulnerability without a vendor supplied patch available.

  - SDL v1.2 was discovered to contain a use-after-free via the XFree function at /src/video/x11/SDL_x11yuv.c.
    (CVE-2022-34568)

Note that Nessus relies on the presence of the package as reported by the vendor.

The remote host is affected by the vulnerability described in GLSA-202305-17 (libsdl: Multiple Vulnerabilities)

  - SDL (Simple DirectMedia Layer) through 1.2.15 and 2.x through 2.0.9 has a heap-based buffer over-read in     InitMS_ADPCM in audio/SDL_wave.c (inside the wNumCoef loop). (CVE-2019-7573)

  - SDL (Simple DirectMedia Layer) through 1.2.15 and 2.x through 2.0.9 has a heap-based buffer over-read in     IMA_ADPCM_decode in audio/SDL_wave.c. (CVE-2019-7574)

  - SDL (Simple DirectMedia Layer) through 1.2.15 and 2.x through 2.0.9 has a heap-based buffer overflow in     MS_ADPCM_decode in audio/SDL_wave.c. (CVE-2019-7575)

  - SDL (Simple DirectMedia Layer) through 1.2.15 and 2.x through 2.0.9 has a heap-based buffer over-read in     InitMS_ADPCM in audio/SDL_wave.c (outside the wNumCoef loop). (CVE-2019-7576)

  - SDL (Simple DirectMedia Layer) through 1.2.15 and 2.x through 2.0.9 has a buffer over-read in     SDL_LoadWAV_RW in audio/SDL_wave.c. (CVE-2019-7577)

  - SDL (Simple DirectMedia Layer) through 1.2.15 and 2.x through 2.0.9 has a heap-based buffer over-read in     InitIMA_ADPCM in audio/SDL_wave.c. (CVE-2019-7578)

  - SDL (Simple DirectMedia Layer) through 1.2.15 and 2.x through 2.0.9 has a heap-based buffer over-read in     Blit1to4 in video/SDL_blit_1.c. (CVE-2019-7635)

  - SDL (Simple DirectMedia Layer) through 1.2.15 and 2.x through 2.0.9 has a heap-based buffer over-read in     Map1toN in video/SDL_pixels.c. (CVE-2019-7638)

  - SDL (Simple DirectMedia Layer) through 1.2.15 and 2.x through 2.0.9 has a heap-based buffer over-read in     BlitNtoN in video/SDL_blit_N.c when called from SDL_SoftBlit in video/SDL_blit.c. (CVE-2019-13616)

  - There is a heap overflow problem in video/SDL_pixels.c in SDL (Simple DirectMedia Layer) 2.x to 2.0.18     versions. By crafting a malicious .BMP file, an attacker can cause the application using this library to     crash, denial of service or Code execution. (CVE-2021-33657)

  - SDL v1.2 was discovered to contain a use-after-free via the XFree function at /src/video/x11/SDL_x11yuv.c.
    (CVE-2022-34568)

Note that Nessus has not tested for these issues but has instead relied only on the application's self-reported version number.

The remote Ubuntu 16.04 ESM host has packages installed that are affected by a vulnerability as referenced in the USN-5586-1 advisory.

    It was discovered that SDL (Simple DirectMedia Layer) incorrectly handled memory. An attacker could     potentially use this issue to cause a denial of service or other unexpected behavior.

Tenable has extracted the preceding description block directly from the Ubuntu security advisory.
