EulerOS Virtualization for ARM 64 3.0.6.0 : perl-DBD-MySQL (EulerOS-SA-2020-2044)

medium Nessus Plugin ID 140992

Synopsis

The remote EulerOS Virtualization for ARM 64 host is missing a security update.

Description

According to the version of the perl-DBD-MySQL package installed, the EulerOS Virtualization for ARM 64 installation on the remote host is affected by the following vulnerability :

 - The DBD::mysql module through 4.043 for Perl uses the mysql_ssl=1 setting to mean that SSL is optional (even though this setting's documentation has a 'your communication with the server will be encrypted' statement), which allows man-in-the-middle attackers to spoof servers via a cleartext-downgrade attack, a related issue to CVE-2015-3152.(CVE-2017-10789)

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 perl-DBD-MySQL package.
