Synopsis

The remote EulerOS host is missing a security update.

Description

According to the version of the libvirt packages installed, the EulerOS installation on the remote host is affected by the following vulnerability :

 - util/virlog.c in libvirt does not properly determine the hostname on LXC container startup, which allows local guest OS users to bypass an intended container protection mechanism and execute arbitrary commands via a crafted NSS module.(CVE-2018-6764)

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.

Solution

Update the affected libvirt package.
