EulerOS 2.0 SP9 : unbound (EulerOS-SA-2024-1950)

high Nessus Plugin ID 202516

Synopsis

The remote EulerOS host is missing a security update.

Description

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

 A vulnerability was found in Unbound due to incorrect default permissions, allowing any process outside the unbound group to modify the unbound runtime configuration. If a process can connect over localhost to port 8953, it can alter the configuration of unbound.service. This flaw allows an unprivileged attacker to manipulate a running instance, potentially altering forwarders, allowing them to track all queries forwarded by the local resolver, and, in some cases, disrupting resolving altogether.(CVE-2024-1488)

Tenable has extracted the preceding description block directly from the EulerOS unbound 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

Update the affected unbound packages.
