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

  - elf/dl-load.c in the GNU C Library (aka glibc or libc6)     2.19 through 2.26 mishandles RPATH and RUNPATH     containing $ORIGIN for a privileged (setuid or     AT_SECURE) program, which allows local users to gain     privileges via a Trojan horse library in the current     working directory, related to the fillin_rpath and     decompose_rpath functions. This is associated with     misinterpretion of an empty RPATH/RUNPATH token as the     './' directory. NOTE: this configuration of     RPATH/RUNPATH for a privileged program is apparently     very uncommon most likely, no such program is shipped     with any common Linux distribution(CVE-2017-16997)

  - Stack-based buffer overflow in the clntudp_call     function in sunrpc/clnt_udp.c in the GNU C Library (aka     glibc or libc6) allows remote servers to cause a denial     of service (crash) or possibly unspecified other impact     via a flood of crafted ICMP and UDP     packets.(CVE-2016-4429)

  - Integer overflow in the strxfrm function in the GNU C     Library (aka glibc or libc6) before 2.21 allows     context-dependent attackers to cause a denial of     service (crash) or possibly execute arbitrary code via     a long string, which triggers a stack-based buffer     overflow.(CVE-2015-8982)

  - A buffer overflow has been discovered in the GNU C     Library (aka glibc or libc6) in the
    __mempcpy_avx512_no_vzeroupper function when particular     conditions are met. An attacker could use this     vulnerability to cause a denial of service or     potentially execute code.(CVE-2018-11237)

  - The posix_spawn_file_actions_addopen function in glibc     before 2.20 does not copy its path argument in     accordance with the POSIX specification, which allows     context-dependent attackers to trigger use-after-free     vulnerabilities.(CVE-2014-4043)

Note that Tenable Network Security has extracted the preceding description block directly from the EulerOS security advisory. Tenable has attempted to automatically clean and format it as much as possible without introducing additional issues.

The remote SUSE Linux SLES11 host has packages installed that are affected by multiple vulnerabilities as referenced in the SUSE-SU-2022:14923-1 advisory.

  - Integer overflow in the strxfrm function in the GNU C Library (aka glibc or libc6) before 2.21 allows     context-dependent attackers to cause a denial of service (crash) or possibly execute arbitrary code via a     long string, which triggers a stack-based buffer overflow. (CVE-2015-8982)

  - Integer overflow in the _IO_wstr_overflow function in libio/wstrops.c in the GNU C Library (aka glibc or     libc6) before 2.22 allows context-dependent attackers to cause a denial of service (application crash) or     possibly execute arbitrary code via vectors related to computing a size in bytes, which triggers a heap-     based buffer overflow. (CVE-2015-8983)

  - A flaw was found in glibc. An off-by-one buffer overflow and underflow in getcwd() may lead to memory     corruption when the size of the buffer is exactly 1. A local attacker who can control the input buffer and     size passed to getcwd() in a setuid program could use this flaw to potentially execute arbitrary code and     escalate their privileges on the system. (CVE-2021-3999)

  - The deprecated compatibility function svcunix_create in the sunrpc module of the GNU C Library (aka glibc)     through 2.34 copies its path argument on the stack without validating its length, which may result in a     buffer overflow, potentially resulting in a denial of service or (if an application is not built with a     stack protector enabled) arbitrary code execution. (CVE-2022-23218)

  - The deprecated compatibility function clnt_create in the sunrpc module of the GNU C Library (aka glibc)     through 2.34 copies its hostname argument on the stack without validating its length, which may result in     a buffer overflow, potentially resulting in a denial of service or (if an application is not built with a     stack protector enabled) arbitrary code execution. (CVE-2022-23219)

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

The remote Redhat Enterprise Linux 5 host has one or more packages installed that are affected by multiple vulnerabilities that have been acknowledged by the vendor but will not be patched.

  - glibc: Incorrect handling of RPATH in elf/dl-load.c can be used to execute code loaded from arbitrary     libraries (CVE-2017-16997)

  - glibc: regular-expression match via proceed_next_node in posix/regexec.c leads to heap-based buffer over-     read (CVE-2019-9169)

  - In the GNU C Library (aka glibc or libc6) before 2.28, parse_reg_exp in posix/regcomp.c misparses     alternatives, which allows attackers to cause a denial of service (assertion failure and application exit)     or trigger an incorrect result by attempting a regular-expression match. (CVE-2009-5155)

Note that Nessus has not tested for these issues but has instead relied on the package manager's report that the package is installed.

  - res_query in libresolv in glibc before 2.25 allows     remote attackers to cause a denial of service (NULL     pointer dereference and process crash).(CVE-2015-5180)

  - A buffer overflow has been discovered in the GNU C     Library (aka glibc or libc6) in the
    __mempcpy_avx512_no_vzeroupper function when particular     conditions are met. An attacker could use this     vulnerability to cause a denial of service or     potentially execute code.(CVE-2018-11237)

  - In the GNU C Library (aka glibc or libc6) through 2.29,     proceed_next_node in posix/regexec.c has a heap-based     buffer over-read via an attempted case-insensitive     regular-expression match.(CVE-2019-9169)

  - The iconv program in the GNU C Library (aka glibc or     libc6) 2.25 and earlier, when invoked with the -c     option, enters an infinite loop when processing invalid     multi-byte input sequences, leading to a denial of     service.(CVE-2016-10228)

  - The DNS stub resolver in the GNU C Library (aka glibc     or libc6) before version 2.26, when EDNS support is     enabled, will solicit large UDP responses from name     servers, potentially simplifying off-path DNS spoofing     attacks due to IP fragmentation.(CVE-2017-12132)
