NewStart CGSL MAIN 6.02 : dbus Vulnerability (NS-SA-2024-0062)

medium Nessus Plugin ID 206833

Synopsis

The remote NewStart CGSL host is affected by a vulnerability.

Description

The remote NewStart CGSL host, running version MAIN 6.02, has dbus packages installed that are affected by a vulnerability:

 - An assertion failure vulnerability was found in D-Bus. This issue occurs when a privileged monitoring connection (dbus-monitor, busctl monitor, gdbus monitor, or similar) is active, and a message from the bus driver cannot be delivered to a client connection due to <deny> rules or outgoing message quota. If a privileged user with control over the dbus-daemon is monitoring the message bus traffic using the Monitoring clients like the dbus-monitor or busctl monitor interfaces, then an unprivileged local user with the ability to connect to the same dbus-daemon could send specially crafted request, causing a dbus- daemon to crash, resulting in a denial of service under some circumstances. (CVE-2023-34969)

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

Solution

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