Augeas versions up to and including 1.8.0 are vulnerable to heap-based buffer overflow due to improper handling of escaped strings. Attacker could send crafted strings that would cause the application using augeas to copy past the end of a buffer, leading to a crash or possible code execution.

According to the versions of the augeas package installed, the EulerOS Virtualization for ARM 64 installation on the remote host is affected by the following vulnerabilities :

  - The Opus codec is designed for interactive speech and     audio transmission over the Internet. It is designed by     the IETF Codec Working Group and incorporates     technology from Skype's SILK codec and Xiph.Org's CELT     codec.Security Fix(es):An information disclosure     vulnerability in silk/NLSF_stabilize.c in libopus in     Mediaserver could enable a local malicious application     to access data outside of its permission levels. This     issue is rated as Moderate because it could be used to     access sensitive data without permission. Product:
