NewStart CGSL CORE 5.05 / MAIN 5.05 : gcc Multiple Vulnerabilities (NS-SA-2019-0233)
critical Nessus Plugin ID 132504
Synopsis
The remote machine is affected by multiple vulnerabilities.Description
The remote NewStart CGSL host, running version CORE 5.05 / MAIN 5.05, has gcc packages installed that are affected by multiple vulnerabilities:- Multiple integer overflows in libgfortran might allow remote attackers to execute arbitrary code or cause a denial of service (Fortran application crash) via vectors related to array allocation. (CVE-2014-5044)
- The std::random_device class in libstdc++ in the GNU Compiler Collection (aka GCC) before 4.9.4 does not properly handle short reads from blocking sources, which makes it easier for context-dependent attackers to predict the random values via unspecified vectors.
(CVE-2015-5276)
Note that Nessus has not tested for this issue but has instead relied only on the application's self-reported version number.
Solution
Upgrade the vulnerable CGSL gcc packages. Note that updated packages may not be available yet. Please contact ZTE for more information.See Also
