medium Nessus Plugin ID 181992

Language:

Synopsis

The remote Amazon Linux 2 host is missing a security update.

Description

The version of libreoffice installed on the remote host is prior to 5.3.6.1-21. It is, therefore, affected by a vulnerability as referenced in the ALAS2LIBREOFFICE-2023-001 advisory.

 A flaw was found in the Libreoffice package. An attacker can craft an odb containing a database/script file with a SCRIPT command where the contents of the file could be written to a new file whose location was determined by the attacker. (CVE-2023-1183)

Tenable has extracted the preceding description block directly from the tested product security advisory.

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

Solution

Run 'yum update libreoffice' to update your system.
