NewStart CGSL CORE 5.04 / MAIN 5.04 : gcc Multiple Vulnerabilities (NS-SA-2022-0019)

critical Nessus Plugin ID 160739

Synopsis

The remote NewStart CGSL host is affected by multiple vulnerabilities.

Description

The remote NewStart CGSL host, running version CORE 5.04 / MAIN 5.04, has gcc packages installed that are affected by multiple vulnerabilities:

- Multiple integer overflows in libgfortran might allow remote attackers to execute arbitrary code or cause a denial of service (Fortran application crash) via vectors related to array allocation. (CVE-2014-5044)

- The std::random_device class in libstdc++ in the GNU Compiler Collection (aka GCC) before 4.9.4 does not properly handle short reads from blocking sources, which makes it easier for context-dependent attackers to predict the random values via unspecified vectors. (CVE-2015-5276)

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 vulnerable CGSL gcc packages. Note that updated packages may not be available yet. Please contact ZTE for more information.
