EulerOS 2.0 SP11 : perl (EulerOS-SA-2024-1110)

critical Nessus Plugin ID 189685

Synopsis

The remote EulerOS host is missing multiple security updates.

Description

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

- A vulnerability was found in perl. This issue occurs when a crafted regular expression is compiled by perl, which can allow an attacker controlled byte buffer overflow in a heap allocated buffer.
(CVE-2023-47038)

- In Perl before 5.38.2, S_parse_uniprop_string in regcomp.c can write to unallocated space because a property name associated with a \p{...} regular expression construct is mishandled. The earliest affected version is 5.30.0. (CVE-2023-47100)

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 perl packages.
