EulerOS 2.0 SP2 : evolution-data-server (EulerOS-SA-2021-1293)
critical Nessus Plugin ID 146687
Synopsis
The remote EulerOS host is missing multiple security updates.Description
According to the versions of the evolution-data-server packages installed, the EulerOS installation on the remote host is affected by the following vulnerabilities :- evolution-data-server (eds) through 3.36.3 has a STARTTLS buffering issue that affects SMTP and POP3.
When a server sends a 'begin TLS' response, eds reads additional data and evaluates it in a TLS context, aka 'response injection.'(CVE-2020-14928)
- addressbook/backends/ldap/e-book-backend-ldap.c in Evolution-Data-Server in GNOME Evolution through 3.29.2 might allow attackers to trigger a Buffer Overflow via a long query that is processed by the strcat function.
NOTE: the software maintainer disputes this because 'the code had computed the required string length first, and then allocated a large-enough buffer on the heap.'(CVE-2018-12422)
- In GNOME evolution-data-server before 3.35.91, a malicious server can crash the mail client with a NULL pointer dereference by sending an invalid (e.g., minimal) CAPABILITY line on a connection attempt. This is related to imapx_free_capability and imapx_connect_to_server.(CVE-2020-16117)
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.
