EulerOS 2.0 SP8 : freeradius (EulerOS-SA-2023-1312)

high Nessus Plugin ID 171175

Synopsis

The remote EulerOS host is missing multiple security updates.

Description

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

 - In freeradius, when an EAP-SIM supplicant sends an unknown SIM option, the server will try to look that option up in the internal dictionaries. This lookup will fail, but the SIM code will not check for that failure. Instead, it will dereference a NULL pointer, and cause the server to crash. (CVE-2022-41860)

 - A flaw was found in freeradius. A malicious RADIUS client or home server can send a malformed abinary attribute which can cause the server to crash. (CVE-2022-41861)

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 freeradius packages.
