ClickHouse < 18.10.3

critical Nessus Plugin ID 216697

Synopsis

The remote host is affected by a vulnerability.

Description

The version of ClickHouse installed on the remote host is prior to 18.10.3. It is, therefore, affected by a remote code execution vulnerability. In ClickHouse before 18.10.3, unixODBC allowed loading arbitrary shared objects from the file system which led to a Remote Code Execution vulnerability.

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

Solution

Upgrade to ClickHouse version 18.10.3 or later.
