Apache Portable Runtime Utility (APR-util) 1.6.0 and prior fail to validate the integrity of SDBM database files used by apr_sdbm*() functions, resulting in a possible out of bound read access. A local user with write access to the database can make a program or process using these functions crash, and cause a denial of service.

According to the versions of the apr-util package installed, the EulerOS Virtualization installation on the remote host is affected by the following vulnerabilities :

The version of IBM HTTP Server running on the remote host is affected by multiple vulnerabilities related to Apache, as follows:

  - Apache httpd allows remote attackers to read secret data from process memory if the Limit directive can be     set in a user's .htaccess file, or if httpd.conf has certain misconfigurations, aka Optionsbleed. This     affects the Apache HTTP Server through 2.2.34 and 2.4.x through 2.4.27. The attacker sends an     unauthenticated OPTIONS HTTP request when attempting to read secret data. This is a use-after-free issue     and thus secret data is not always sent, and the specific data depends on many factors including     configuration. Exploitation with .htaccess can be blocked with a patch to the ap_limit_section function in     server/core.c. (CVE-2017-9798)

Security issue fixed :

  - CVE-2017-12618: DoS via crafted SDBM database files in     apr_sdbm*() functions (bsc#1064990)

This update was imported from the SUSE:SLE-12:Update update project.

Apache Portable Runtime Utility (APR-util) fails to validate the integrity of SDBM database files used by apr_sdbm*() functions, resulting in a possible out of bound read access. A local user with write access to the database can make a program or process using these functions crash, and cause a denial of service.(CVE-2017-12618)

Security fix

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

It was discovered that there was an out-of-bounds read access in apr-util, a support/portability library used by many applications.

A local user with write access to the database could have made a process using these functions crash and thus cause a denial of service.

For Debian 7 'Wheezy', this issue has been fixed in apr-util version 1.4.1-3+deb7u1.

We recommend that you upgrade your apr-util packages.
