Language:

Synopsis

The remote Debian host is missing a security update.

Description

Multiple vulnerabilities have been discovered in liblivemedia, the LIVE555 RTSP server library :

CVE-2019-6256

liblivemedia servers with RTSP-over-HTTP tunneling enabled are vulnerable to an invalid function pointer dereference. This issue might happen during error handling when processing two GET and POST requests being sent with identical x-sessioncookie within the same TCP session and might be leveraged by remote attackers to cause DoS.

CVE-2019-7314

liblivemedia servers with RTSP-over-HTTP tunneling enabled are affected by a use-after-free vulnerability. This vulnerability might be triggered by remote attackers to cause DoS (server crash) or possibly unspecified other impact.

For Debian 8 'Jessie', these problems have been fixed in version 2014.01.13-1+deb8u2.

We recommend that you upgrade your liblivemedia packages.

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

Solution

Upgrade the affected packages.
