Synopsis

The remote EulerOS host is missing a security update.

Description

According to the version of the 389-ds-base packages installed, the EulerOS installation on the remote host is affected by the following vulnerability :

- 389-ds-base before versions 1.3.8.5, 1.4.0.12 is vulnerable to a Cleartext Storage of Sensitive Information. By default, when the Replica and/or retroChangeLog plugins are enabled, 389-ds-base stores passwords in plaintext format in their respective changelog files. An attacker with sufficiently high privileges, such as root or Directory Manager, can query these files in order to retrieve plaintext passwords.(CVE-2018-10871)
