tqdm is an open source progress bar for Python and CLI. Any optional non-boolean CLI arguments (e.g. `--delim`, `--buf-size`, `--manpath`) are passed through python's `eval`, allowing arbitrary code execution. This issue is only locally exploitable and had been addressed in release version 4.66.3. All users are advised to upgrade. There are no known workarounds for this vulnerability.

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

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

The remote Ubuntu 22.04 LTS / 24.04 LTS host has a package installed that is affected by a vulnerability as referenced in the USN-7216-1 advisory.

    It was discovered that tqdm did not properly sanitize non-boolean CLI Arguments. A local attacker could     possibly use this issue to execute arbitrary code on the host. This issue only affected Ubuntu 22.04 LTS     and Ubuntu 24.04 LTS. (CVE-2024-34062)

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

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

It is, therefore, affected by a vulnerability as referenced in the ALAS2023-2024-690 advisory.
