EulerOS Virtualization for ARM 64 3.0.3.0 : icu (EulerOS-SA-2019-2312)

critical Nessus Plugin ID 131477

Synopsis

The remote EulerOS Virtualization for ARM 64 host is missing a security update.

Description

According to the version of the icu package installed, the EulerOS Virtualization for ARM 64 installation on the remote host is affected by the following vulnerability :

- The ucnv_UTF8FromUTF8 function in ucnv_u8.cpp in International Components for Unicode (ICU) for C/C++ through 60.1 mishandles ucnv_convertEx calls for UTF-8 to UTF-8 conversion, which allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (stack-based buffer overflow and application crash) or possibly have unspecified other impact via a crafted string, as demonstrated by ZNC.(CVE-2017-17484)

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 icu package.
