Synopsis

The remote EulerOS Virtualization host is missing a security update.

Description

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

 - Multiple heap-based buffer overflows in the status_handler function in (1) engine-gpgsm.c and (2) engine-uiserver.c in GPGME before 1.5.1 allow remote attackers to cause a denial of service (crash) and possibly execute arbitrary code via vectors related to 'different line lengths in a specific order.'(CVE-2014-3564)
