Synopsis

The remote Debian host is missing one or more security-related updates.

Description

The remote Debian 10 / 11 host has packages installed that are affected by multiple vulnerabilities as referenced in the dsa-5077 advisory.

Multiple security issues were discovered in LibreCAD, an application for computer aided design (CAD) which could result in denial of service or the execution of arbitrary code if a malformed CAD file is opened.
For the oldstable distribution (buster), these problems have been fixed in version 2.1.3-1.2+deb10u1. For the stable distribution (bullseye), these problems have been fixed in version 2.1.3-1.3+deb11u1. We recommend that you upgrade your librecad packages. For the detailed security status of librecad please refer to its security tracker page at: https://security-tracker.debian.org/tracker/librecad

Tenable has extracted the preceding description block directly from the Debian 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

Upgrade the librecad packages.

For the stable distribution (bullseye), these problems have been fixed in version 2.1.3-1.3+deb11u1.
