EulerOS 2.0 SP8 : bcel (EulerOS-SA-2023-1307)

critical Nessus Plugin ID 171140

Synopsis

The remote EulerOS host is missing a security update.

Description

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

 - Apache Commons BCEL has a number of APIs that would normally only allow changing specific class characteristics. However, due to an out-of-bounds writing issue, these APIs can be used to produce arbitrary bytecode. This could be abused in applications that pass attacker-controllable data to those APIs, giving the attacker more control over the resulting bytecode than otherwise expected. Update to Apache Commons BCEL 6.6.0. (CVE-2022-42920)

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 bcel packages.
