EulerOS 2.0 SP5 : zsh (EulerOS-SA-2019-2235)

critical Nessus Plugin ID 130697

Synopsis

The remote EulerOS host is missing multiple security updates.

Description

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

- zsh through version 5.4.2 is vulnerable to a stack-based buffer overflow in the exec.c:hashcmd() function. A local attacker could exploit this to cause a denial of service.(CVE-2018-1071)

- zsh through version 5.4.2 is vulnerable to a stack-based buffer overflow in the utils.c:checkmailpath function. A local attacker could exploit this to execute arbitrary code in the context of another user.(CVE-2018-1100)

- An issue was discovered in zsh before 5.6. The beginning of a #! script file was mishandled, potentially leading to an execve call to a program named on the second line.(CVE-2018-0502)

- An issue was discovered in zsh before 5.6. Shebang lines exceeding 64 characters were truncated, potentially leading to an execve call to a program name that is a substring of the intended one.(CVE-2018-13259)

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 zsh packages.
