The remote CentOS Linux 8 host has packages installed that are affected by a vulnerability as referenced in the CESA-2021:4386 advisory.

  - libiberty: Integer overflow in demangle_template() function (CVE-2018-20673)

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

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

  - The demangle_template function in cplus-dem.c in GNU     libiberty, as distributed in GNU Binutils 2.31.1,     contains an integer overflow vulnerability (for 'Create     an array for saving the template argument values') that     can trigger a heap-based buffer overflow, as     demonstrated by nm.(CVE-2018-20673)

  - The demangle_template function in cplus-dem.c in GNU     libiberty, as distributed in GNU Binutils 2.31.1, has a     memory leak via a crafted string, leading to a denial     of service (memory consumption), as demonstrated by     cxxfilt, a related issue to     CVE-2018-12698.(CVE-2018-20657)

  - The get_count function in cplus-dem.c in GNU libiberty,     as distributed in GNU Binutils 2.31, allows remote     attackers to cause a denial of service (malloc called     with the result of an integer-overflowing calculation)     or possibly have unspecified other impact via a crafted     string, as demonstrated by c++filt.(CVE-2018-18483)

  - An issue was discovered in GNU libiberty, as     distributed in GNU Binutils 2.32.
    simple_object_elf_match in simple-object-elf.c does not     check for a zero shstrndx value, leading to an integer     overflow and resultant heap-based buffer     overflow.(CVE-2019-14250)

  - An issue was discovered in GNU libiberty, as     distributed in GNU Binutils 2.32. It is a heap-based     buffer over-read in d_expression_1 in cp-demangle.c     after many recursive calls.(CVE-2019-9070)

  - An issue was discovered in the Binary File Descriptor     (BFD) library (aka libbfd), as distributed in GNU     Binutils 2.32. It is an attempted excessive memory     allocation in elf_read_notes in elf.c.(CVE-2019-9076)

  - An issue was discovered in the Binary File Descriptor     (BFD) library (aka libbfd), as distributed in GNU     Binutils 2.32. It is an out-of-bounds read leading to a     SEGV in bfd_getl32 in libbfd.c, when called from     pex64_get_runtime_function in     pei-x86_64.c.(CVE-2019-9074)

  - An issue was discovered in GNU libiberty, as     distributed in GNU Binutils 2.32. It is a stack     consumption issue in d_count_templates_scopes in     cp-demangle.c after many recursive     calls.(CVE-2019-9071)
