EulerOS 2.0 SP5 : quagga (EulerOS-SA-2019-2228)

critical Nessus Plugin ID 130690

Synopsis

The remote EulerOS host is missing multiple security updates.

Description

According to the versions of the quagga package installed, the EulerOS installation on the remote host is affected by the following vulnerabilities :

- It was discovered that the zebra daemon in Quagga before 1.0.20161017 suffered from a stack-based buffer overflow when processing IPv6 Neighbor Discovery messages. The root cause was relying on BUFSIZ to be compatible with a message size however, BUFSIZ is system-dependent.(CVE-2016-1245)

- The Quagga BGP daemon (bgpd) prior to version 1.2.3 can overrun internal BGP code-to-string conversion tables used for debug by 1 pointer value, based on input.(CVE-2018-5380)

- The Quagga BGP daemon (bgpd) prior to version 1.2.3 has a bug in its parsing of 'Capabilities' in BGP OPEN messages, in the bgp_packet.c:bgp_capability_msg_parse function. The parser can enter an infinite loop on invalid capabilities if a Multi-Protocol capability does not have a recognized AFI/SAFI, causing a denial of service.(CVE-2018-5381)

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 quagga packages.
