Fedora 36 : lilypond / lilypond-doc (2023-6edb8fab0d)

high Nessus Plugin ID 174767

Language:

Synopsis

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

Description

The remote Fedora 36 host has packages installed that are affected by a vulnerability as referenced in the FEDORA-2023-6edb8fab0d advisory.

 - LilyPond before 2.24 allows attackers to bypass the -dsafe protection mechanism via output-def-lookup or output-def-scope, as demonstrated by dangerous Scheme code in a .ly file that causes arbitrary code execution during conversion to a different file format. NOTE: in 2.24 and later versions, safe mode is removed, and the product no longer tries to block code execution when external files are used.
 (CVE-2020-17354)

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

Solution

Update the affected lilypond and / or lilypond-doc packages.
