Synopsis

The remote EulerOS Virtualization host is missing a security update.

Description

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

- It was discovered that systemd allocates a buffer large enough to store the path field of a dbus message without performing enough checks. A local attacker may trigger this flaw by sending a dbus message to systemd with a large path making systemd crash or possibly elevating his privileges.(CVE-2019-6454)
