medium Nessus Plugin ID 143576

Language:

Synopsis

The remote Amazon Linux 2 host is missing a security update.

Description

The version of qt installed on the remote host is prior to 4.8.5-15. The version of qt5-qtbase installed on the remote host is prior to 5.9.2-3. It is, therefore, affected by a vulnerability as referenced in the ALAS2-2020-1574 advisory.

 An issue was discovered in Qt through 5.12.9, and 5.13.x through 5.15.x before 5.15.1. read_xbm_body in gui/image/qxbmhandler.cpp has a buffer over-read. (CVE-2020-17507)

Tenable has extracted the preceding description block directly from the tested product security advisory.

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

Solution

Run 'yum update qt' to update your system.
 Run 'yum update qt5-qtbase' to update your system.
