Synopsis

The remote SUSE host is missing one or more security updates.

Description

The remote SUSE Linux SLES15 host has packages installed that are affected by multiple vulnerabilities as referenced in the SUSE-SU-2022:3827-1 advisory.

- A out of bounds read was discovered in H5VM_memcpyvv in H5VM.c in the HDF HDF5 1.10.2 library. It could allow a remote denial of service or information disclosure attack. (CVE-2018-11205)

- An issue was discovered in the HDF HDF5 1.8.20 library. There is an out of bounds read in the function H5F__accum_read in H5Faccum.c. (CVE-2018-13867)

- An issue was discovered in the HDF HDF5 1.8.20 library. There is a heap-based buffer over-read in the function H5T_copy in H5T.c. (CVE-2018-14031)

- An issue was discovered in the HDF HDF5 1.8.20 library. There is an out of bounds read in H5L_extern_query at H5Lexternal.c. (CVE-2018-16438)

- An issue was discovered in the HDF HDF5 1.10.3 library. There is a stack-based buffer overflow in the function H5S_extent_get_dims() in H5S.c. Specifically, this issue occurs while converting an HDF5 file to a GIF file. (CVE-2018-17439)

- A buffer overflow in H5O__layout_encode in H5Olayout.c in the HDF HDF5 through 1.10.4 library allows attackers to cause a denial of service via a crafted HDF5 file. This issue was triggered while repacking an HDF5 file, aka Invalid write of size 2. (CVE-2019-8396)

- An issue was discovered in HDF5 through 1.12.0. A NULL pointer dereference exists in the function H5F_get_nrefs() located in H5Fquery.c. It allows an attacker to cause Denial of Service. (CVE-2020-10812)

- A heap-based buffer overflow vulnerability exists in HDF5 1.13.1-1 via H5F_addr_decode_len in /hdf5/src/H5Fint.c, which could cause a Denial of Service. (CVE-2021-45830)

- A Stack-based Buffer Overflow Vulnerability exists in HDF5 1.13.1-1 via the H5D__create_chunk_file_map_hyper function in /hdf5/src/H5Dchunk.c, which causes a Denial of Service (context-dependent). (CVE-2021-45833)

- HDF5 v1.13.1-1 was discovered to contain a heap-use-after free via the component H5AC_unpin_entry.
(CVE-2021-46242)

- A Divide By Zero vulnerability exists in HDF5 v1.13.1-1 vis the function H5T__complete_copy () at /hdf5/src/H5T.c. This vulnerability causes an aritmetic exception, leading to a Denial of Service (DoS).
(CVE-2021-46244)

Note that Nessus has not tested for these issues but has instead relied only on the application's self-reported version number.

Solution

Update the affected packages.
