Amazon Linux 2023 : autotrace, autotrace-devel (ALAS2023-2023-004)

high Nessus Plugin ID 173078

Synopsis

The remote Amazon Linux 2023 host is missing a security update.

Description

It is, therefore, affected by multiple vulnerabilities as referenced in the ALAS2023-2023-004 advisory.

- A biWidth*biBitCnt integer overflow in input-bmp.c in autotrace 0.31.1 allows attackers to provide an unexpected input value to malloc via a malformed bitmap image. (CVE-2019-19004)

- A bitmap double free in main.c in autotrace 0.31.1 allows attackers to cause an unspecified impact via a malformed bitmap image. This may occur after the use-after-free in CVE-2017-9182. (CVE-2019-19005)

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

Solution

Run 'dnf update autotrace --releasever=2023.0.20230222 ' to update your system.
