Synopsis

The remote Red Hat host is missing one or more security updates for virt:rhel.

Description

The remote Redhat Enterprise Linux 8 host has packages installed that are affected by multiple vulnerabilities as referenced in the RHSA-2019:1175 advisory.

- hardware: Microarchitectural Store Buffer Data Sampling (MSBDS) (CVE-2018-12126)

- hardware: Micro-architectural Load Port Data Sampling - Information Leak (MLPDS) (CVE-2018-12127)

- hardware: Microarchitectural Fill Buffer Data Sampling (MFBDS) (CVE-2018-12130)

- QEMU: device_tree: heap buffer overflow while loading device tree blob (CVE-2018-20815)

- libssh2: Integer overflow in transport read resulting in out of bounds write (CVE-2019-3855)

- libssh2: Integer overflow in keyboard interactive handling resulting in out of bounds write (CVE-2019-3856)

- libssh2: Integer overflow in SSH packet processing channel resulting in out of bounds write (CVE-2019-3857)

- libssh2: Integer overflow in user authenticate keyboard interactive allows out-of-bounds writes (CVE-2019-3863)

- hardware: Microarchitectural Data Sampling Uncacheable Memory (MDSUM) (CVE-2019-11091)

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

Solution

Update the RHEL virt:rhel package based on the guidance in RHSA-2019:1175.
