medium Nessus Plugin ID 142434

Language:

Synopsis

The remote Red Hat host is missing one or more security updates.

Description

The remote Redhat Enterprise Linux 8 host has packages installed that are affected by multiple vulnerabilities as referenced in the RHSA-2020:4628 advisory.

LibreOffice is an open source, community-developed office productivity suite. It includes key desktop applications, such as a word processor, a spreadsheet, a presentation manager, a formula editor, and a drawing program. LibreOffice replaces OpenOffice and provides a similar but enhanced and extended office suite.

The following packages have been upgraded to a later upstream version: libreoffice (6.3.6.2), libcmis (0.5.2), liborcus (0.14.1). (BZ#1796893)

Security Fix(es):

* libreoffice: 'stealth mode' remote resource restrictions bypass (CVE-2020-12802)

* libreoffice: forms allowed to be submitted to any URI could result in local file overwrite (CVE-2020-12803)

For more details about the security issue(s), including the impact, a CVSS score, acknowledgments, and other related information, refer to the CVE page(s) listed in the References section.

Additional Changes:

For detailed information on changes in this release, see the Red Hat Enterprise Linux 8.3 Release Notes linked from the References section.

Tenable has extracted the preceding description block directly from the Red Hat Enterprise Linux security advisory.

Note that Nessus has not tested for these issues but has instead relied only on the application's self-reported version number.

Solution

Update the affected packages.
