According to the versions of the glib2 packages installed, the EulerOS installation on the remote host is affected by the following vulnerabilities :

  - PCRE 7.8 and 8.32 through 8.37, and PCRE2 10.10     mishandle group empty matches, which might allow remote     attackers to cause a denial of service (stack-based     buffer overflow) via a crafted regular expression, as     demonstrated by     /^(?:(?(1)\\.|([^\\\\W_])?)+)+$/.(CVE-2015-3217)

  - Heap-based buffer overflow in the find_fixedlength     function in pcre_compile.c in PCRE before 8.38 allows     remote attackers to cause a denial of service (crash)     or obtain sensitive information from heap memory and     possibly bypass the ASLR protection mechanism via a     crafted regular expression with an excess closing     parenthesis.(CVE-2015-5073)

  - The keyfile settings backend in GNOME GLib (aka     glib2.0) before 2.60.0 creates directories using     g_file_make_directory_with_parents (kfsb->dir, NULL,     NULL) and files using g_file_replace_contents     (kfsb->file, contents, length, NULL, FALSE,     G_FILE_CREATE_REPLACE_DESTINATION, NULL, NULL, NULL).
    Consequently, it does not properly restrict directory     (and file) permissions. Instead, for directories, 0777     permissions are used for files, default file     permissions are used. This is similar to     CVE-2019-12450.(CVE-2019-13012)

  - file_copy_fallback in gio/gfile.c in GNOME GLib 2.15.0     through 2.61.1 does not properly restrict file     permissions while a copy operation is in progress.
    Instead, default permissions are used.(CVE-2019-12450)

An update for pcre is now available for Red Hat Enterprise Linux 7.

Red Hat Product Security has rated this update as having a security impact of Important. A Common Vulnerability Scoring System (CVSS) base score, which gives a detailed severity rating, is available for each vulnerability from the CVE link(s) in the References section.

PCRE is a Perl-compatible regular expression library.

Security Fix(es) :

Venustech ADLAB reports :

PCRE library is prone to a vulnerability which leads to Heap Overflow.
During the compilation of a malformed regular expression, more data is written on the malloced block than the expected size output by compile_regex.

PCRE library is prone to a vulnerability which leads to Stack Overflow. Without enough bound checking inside match(), the stack memory could be overflowed via a crafted regular expression.
