The remote SUSE Linux SLED15 / SLES15 host has a package installed that is affected by multiple vulnerabilities as referenced in the SUSE-SU-2021:2454-1 advisory.

  - Xfig fig2dev 3.2.7a has a stack-based buffer overflow in the calc_arrow function in bound.c.
    (CVE-2019-14275)

  - read_textobject in read.c in Xfig fig2dev 3.2.7b has a stack-based buffer overflow because of an incorrect     sscanf. (CVE-2019-19555)

  - make_arrow in arrow.c in Xfig fig2dev 3.2.7b allows a segmentation fault and out-of-bounds write because     of an integer overflow via a large arrow type. (CVE-2019-19746)

  - read_colordef in read.c in Xfig fig2dev 3.2.7b has an out-of-bounds write. (CVE-2019-19797)

  - An Out of Bounds flaw was found fig2dev version 3.2.8a. A flawed bounds check in read_objects() could     allow an attacker to provide a crafted malicious input causing the application to either crash or in some     cases cause memory corruption. The highest threat from this vulnerability is to integrity as well as     system availability. (CVE-2021-3561)

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

The remote Debian 9 host has packages installed that are affected by multiple vulnerabilities as referenced in the dla-2778 advisory.

    Multiple security vulnerabilities have been discovered in fig2dev, utilities for converting XFig figure     files. Buffer overflows, out-of-bounds reads and NULL pointer dereferences could lead to a denial-of-     service or other unspecified impact. For Debian 9 stretch, these problems have been fixed in version     1:3.2.6a-2+deb9u4. We recommend that you upgrade your fig2dev packages. For the detailed security status     of fig2dev please refer to its security tracker page at: https://security-     tracker.debian.org/tracker/fig2dev Further information about Debian LTS security advisories, how to apply     these updates to your system and frequently asked questions can be found at: https://wiki.debian.org/LTS

The version of transfig installed on the remote host is prior to 3.2.7b-10.8. It is, therefore, affected by multiple vulnerabilities as referenced in the ALAS-2023-1807 advisory.

    2024-06-07: CVE-2019-19797 was added to this advisory.

    An out-of-bounds write flaw was found in transfig in the way the `fig2dev` program handled the processing     of Fig format files. Specifically, the flaw affects the translation process of Fig codes into the box     graphics language. This flaw allows for potential exploitation by crashing the `fig2dev` program by     tricking it into processing specially crafted Fig format files. (CVE-2019-19797)
