CBL Mariner 2.0 Security Update: patch (CVE-2019-13638)

high Nessus Plugin ID 201781

Synopsis

The remote CBL Mariner host is missing one or more security updates.

Description

The version of patch installed on the remote CBL Mariner 2.0 host is prior to tested version. It is, therefore, affected by a vulnerability as referenced in the CVE-2019-13638 advisory.

 - GNU patch through 2.7.6 is vulnerable to OS shell command injection that can be exploited by opening a crafted patch file that contains an ed style diff payload with shell metacharacters. The ed editor does not need to be present on the vulnerable system. This is different from CVE-2018-1000156. (CVE-2019-13638)

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 packages.
