medium Nessus Plugin ID 132377

Synopsis

The remote EulerOS host is missing multiple security updates.

Description

According to the versions of the exiv2 package installed, the EulerOS installation on the remote host is affected by the following vulnerabilities :

 - Exiv2::Internal::PngChunk::parseTXTChunk in Exiv2 v0.26 allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (heap-based buffer over-read) via a crafted image file, a different vulnerability than CVE-2018-10999.(CVE-2018-16336)

 - The Exiv2::Jp2Image::readMetadata function in jp2image.cpp in Exiv2 0.26 allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (excessive memory allocation) via a crafted file.(CVE-2018-4868)

 - In Exiv2 before v0.27.2, there is an integer overflow vulnerability in the WebPImage::getHeaderOffset function in webpimage.cpp. It can lead to a buffer overflow vulnerability and a crash.(CVE-2019-14982)

 - There is a reachable assertion in the Internal::TiffReader::visitDirectory function in tiffvisitor.cpp of Exiv2 0.26 that will lead to a remote denial of service attack via crafted input.(CVE-2017-11683)

 - An Invalid memory address dereference was discovered in Exiv2::StringValueBase::read in value.cpp in Exiv2 0.26. The vulnerability causes a segmentation fault and application crash, which leads to denial of service.(CVE-2017-14859)

 - An Invalid memory address dereference was discovered in Exiv2::DataValue::read in value.cpp in Exiv2 0.26. The vulnerability causes a segmentation fault and application crash, which leads to denial of service.(CVE-2017-14862)

 - An Invalid memory address dereference was discovered in Exiv2::getULong in types.cpp in Exiv2 0.26. The vulnerability causes a segmentation fault and application crash, which leads to denial of service.(CVE-2017-14864)

 - There is a heap-based buffer overflow in the Exiv2::us2Data function of types.cpp in Exiv2 0.26. A Crafted input will lead to a denial of service attack.(CVE-2017-14865)

 - There is a heap-based buffer over-read in the Exiv2::Internal::PngChunk::keyTXTChunk function of pngchunk_int.cpp in Exiv2 0.26. A crafted PNG file will lead to a remote denial of service attack.(CVE-2017-17669)

 - Exiv2 0.26 has a Null Pointer Dereference in the Exiv2::DataValue::toLong function in value.cpp, related to crafted metadata in a TIFF file.(CVE-2017-18005)
