A vulnerability was found in GNU C Library 2.38. It has been declared as critical. This vulnerability affects the function __monstartup of the file gmon.c of the component Call Graph Monitor. The manipulation leads to buffer overflow. It is recommended to apply a patch to fix this issue. VDB-220246 is the identifier assigned to this vulnerability. NOTE: The real existence of this vulnerability is still doubted at the moment. The inputs that induce this vulnerability are basically addresses of the running application that is built with gmon enabled. It's basically trusted input or input that needs an actual security flaw to be compromised or controlled.

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

    The iconv() function in the GNU C Library versions 2.39 and older may overflow the output buffer passed to     it by up to 4 bytes when converting strings to the ISO-2022-CN-EXT character set, which may be used to     crash an application or overwrite a neighbouring variable.(CVE-2024-2961)

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

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

An update of the glibc package has been released.

The remote SUSE Linux SLED15 / SLED_SAP15 / SLES15 / SLES_SAP15 / openSUSE 15 host has packages installed that are affected by multiple vulnerabilities as referenced in the SUSE-SU-2023:3825-1 advisory.

  - An issue was discovered in binutils libbfd.c 2.36 relating to the auxiliary symbol data allows attackers     to read or write to system memory or cause a denial of service. (CVE-2020-19726)

  - An issue was discovered in GNU libiberty, as distributed in GNU Binutils 2.36. It is a stack-overflow     issue in demangle_type in rust-demangle.c. (CVE-2021-32256)
