EulerOS 2.0 SP8 : glib-networking (EulerOS-SA-2021-1143)

medium Nessus Plugin ID 145733

Synopsis

The remote EulerOS host is missing a security update.

Description

According to the version of the glib-networking package installed, the EulerOS installation on the remote host is affected by the following vulnerability :

 - In GNOME glib-networking through 2.64.2, the implementation of GTlsClientConnection skips hostname verification of the server's TLS certificate if the application fails to specify the expected server identity. This is in contrast to its intended documented behavior, to fail the certificate verification. Applications that fail to provide the server identity, including Balsa before 2.5.11 and 2.6.x before 2.6.1, accept a TLS certificate if the certificate is valid for any host.(CVE-2020-13645)

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 glib-networking package.
