NewStart CGSL MAIN 6.06 : cairo Vulnerability (NS-SA-2023-0077)

high Nessus Plugin ID 187333

Synopsis

The remote NewStart CGSL host is affected by a vulnerability.

Description

The remote NewStart CGSL host, running version MAIN 6.06, has cairo packages installed that are affected by a vulnerability:

- A flaw was found in cairo's image-compositor.c in all versions prior to 1.17.4. This flaw allows an attacker who can provide a crafted input file to cairo's image-compositor (for example, by convincing a user to open a file in an application using cairo, or if an application uses cairo on untrusted input) to cause a stack buffer overflow -> out-of-bounds WRITE. The highest impact from this vulnerability is to confidentiality, integrity, as well as system availability. (CVE-2020-35492)

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

Solution

Upgrade the vulnerable CGSL cairo packages. Note that updated packages may not be available yet. Please contact ZTE for more information.
