EulerOS Virtualization 3.0.6.0 : numpy (EulerOS-SA-2020-1730)

critical Nessus Plugin ID 137949

Synopsis

The remote EulerOS Virtualization host is missing a security update.

Description

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

 - ** DISPUTED ** An issue was discovered in NumPy 1.16.0 and earlier. It uses the pickle Python module unsafely, which allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary code via a crafted serialized object, as demonstrated by a numpy.load call. NOTE: third parties dispute this issue because it is a behavior that might have legitimate applications in (for example) loading serialized Python object arrays from trusted and authenticated sources.(CVE-2019-6446)

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 numpy package.
