EulerOS 2.0 SP8 : pcre2 (EulerOS-SA-2022-1945)

critical Nessus Plugin ID 162458

Synopsis

The remote EulerOS host is missing multiple security updates.

Description

According to the versions of the pcre2 packages installed, the EulerOS installation on the remote host is affected by the following vulnerabilities :

 - An out-of-bounds read vulnerability was discovered in the PCRE2 library in the compile_xclass_matchingpath() function of the pcre2_jit_compile.c file. This involves a unicode property matching issue in JIT-compiled regular expressions. The issue occurs because the character was not fully read in case-less matching within JIT. (CVE-2022-1586)

 - An out-of-bounds read vulnerability was discovered in the PCRE2 library in the get_recurse_data_length() function of the pcre2_jit_compile.c file. This issue affects recursions in JIT-compiled regular expressions caused by duplicate data transfers. (CVE-2022-1587)

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 pcre2 packages.
