This update for libu2f-host fixes the following issues :

Security issue fixed :

  - CVE-2018-20340: Fixed an unchecked buffer, which could     allow a buffer overflow with a custom made malicious USB     device (bsc#1124781).

This update for libu2f-host and pam_u2f to version 1.0.8 fixes the following issues :

Security issues fixed for libu2f-host :

CVE-2019-9578: Fixed a memory leak due to a wrong parse of init's response (bsc#1128140).

CVE-2018-20340: Fixed an unchecked buffer, which could allow a buffer overflow with a custom made malicious USB device (bsc#1124781).

Security issues fixed for pam_u2f: CVE-2019-12209: Fixed an issue where symlinks in the user's directory were followed (bsc#1135729).

CVE-2019-12210: Fixed file descriptor leaks (bsc#1135727).

Christian Reitter discovered that libu2f-host, a library implementing the host-side of the U2F protocol, failed to properly check for a buffer overflow. This would allow an attacker with a custom made malicious USB device masquerading as a security key, and physical access to a computer where PAM U2F or an application with libu2f-host integrated, to potentially execute arbitrary code on that computer.

  - CVE-2018-20340: Fixed an unchecked buffer, which could     allow a buffer overflow with a custom made malicious USB     device (bsc#1124781). This update was imported from the     SUSE:SLE-15:Update update project.

The remote SUSE Linux SUSE15 host has packages installed that are affected by multiple vulnerabilities as referenced in the openSUSE-SU-2021:1755-1 advisory.

  - Yubico libu2f-host 1.1.6 contains unchecked buffers in devs.c, which could enable a malicious token to     exploit a buffer overflow. An attacker could use this to attempt to execute malicious code using a crafted     USB device masquerading as a security token on a computer where the affected library is currently in use.
    It is not possible to perform this attack with a genuine YubiKey. (CVE-2018-20340)

  - In devs.c in Yubico libu2f-host before 1.1.8, the response to init is misparsed, leaking uninitialized     stack memory back to the device. (CVE-2019-9578)

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