The remote CentOS Linux 9 host has packages installed that are affected by multiple vulnerabilities as referenced in the mingw-binutils-2.40-3.el9 build changelog.

  - An illegal memory access flaw was found in the binutils package. Parsing an ELF file containing corrupt     symbol version information may result in a denial of service. This issue is the result of an incomplete     fix for CVE-2020-16599. (CVE-2022-4285)

  - A potential heap based buffer overflow was found in _bfd_elf_slurp_version_tables() in bfd/elf.c. This may     lead to loss of availability. (CVE-2023-1972)

  - Rejected reason: DO NOT USE THIS CANDIDATE NUMBER. ConsultIDs: none. Reason: This candidate was withdrawn     by its CNA. Further investigation showed that it was not a security issue. Notes: none. (CVE-2023-25587)

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

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

  - A potential heap based buffer overflow was found in _bfd_elf_slurp_version_tables() in bfd/elf.c. This may     lead to loss of availability. (CVE-2023-1972)

  - A flaw was found in Binutils. The use of an uninitialized field in the struct module *module may lead to     application crash and local denial of service. (CVE-2023-25585)

  - Rejected reason: DO NOT USE THIS CANDIDATE NUMBER. ConsultIDs: none. Reason: This candidate was withdrawn     by its CNA. Further investigation showed that it was not a security issue. Notes: none. (CVE-2023-25587)

  - A flaw was found in Binutils. The field `the_bfd` of `asymbol`struct is uninitialized in the     `bfd_mach_o_get_synthetic_symtab` function, which may lead to an application crash and local denial of     service. (CVE-2023-25588)

Note that Tenable Network Security has extracted the preceding description block directly from the EulerOS security advisory. Tenable has attempted to automatically clean and format it as much as possible without introducing additional issues.

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

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)

  - An issue was discovered in Binutils readelf 2.38.50, reachable assertion failure in function     display_debug_names allows attackers to cause a denial of service. (CVE-2022-35205)

  - Null pointer dereference vulnerability in Binutils readelf 2.38.50 via function     read_and_display_attr_value in file dwarf.c. (CVE-2022-35206)

  - An illegal memory access flaw was found in the binutils package. Parsing an ELF file containing corrupt     symbol version information may result in a denial of service. This issue is the result of an incomplete     fix for CVE-2020-16599. (CVE-2022-4285)

  - Heap buffer overflow vulnerability in binutils readelf before 2.40 via function find_section_in_set in     file readelf.c. (CVE-2022-44840)

  - Heap buffer overflow vulnerability in binutils readelf before 2.40 via function display_debug_section in     file readelf.c. (CVE-2022-45703)

  - An issue was discovered in Binutils addr2line before 2.39.3, function parse_module contains multiple out     of bound reads which may cause a denial of service or other unspecified impacts. (CVE-2022-47673)

  - An issue was discovered Binutils objdump before 2.39.3 allows attackers to cause a denial of service or     other unspecified impacts via function bfd_mach_o_get_synthetic_symtab in match-o.c. (CVE-2022-47695)

  - An issue was discovered Binutils objdump before 2.39.3 allows attackers to cause a denial of service or     other unspecified impacts via function compare_symbols. (CVE-2022-47696)

  - GNU Binutils before 2.40 was discovered to contain an excessive memory consumption vulnerability via the     function load_separate_debug_files at dwarf2.c. The attacker could supply a crafted ELF file and cause a     DNS attack. (CVE-2022-48063)

  - GNU Binutils before 2.40 was discovered to contain an excessive memory consumption vulnerability via the     function bfd_dwarf2_find_nearest_line_with_alt at dwarf2.c. The attacker could supply a crafted ELF file     and cause a DNS attack. (CVE-2022-48064)

  - GNU Binutils before 2.40 was discovered to contain a memory leak vulnerability var the function     find_abstract_instance in dwarf2.c. (CVE-2022-48065)

  - ** DISPUTED ** 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. (CVE-2023-0687)
