high Tenable Cloud Security Plugin ID 404848
Description
There are packages installed that are affected by multiple vulnerabilities referenced in the following CVEs:- An issue was discovered in GNOME gvfs 1.29.4 through 1.41.2. daemon/gvfsbackendadmin.c mishandles file
ownership because setfsuid is not used. (CVE-2019-12447)
- An issue was discovered in GNOME gvfs 1.29.4 through 1.41.2. daemon/gvfsbackendadmin.c has race conditions
because the admin backend doesn't implement query_info_on_read/write. (CVE-2019-12448)
- An issue was discovered in GNOME gvfs 1.29.4 through 1.41.2. daemon/gvfsbackendadmin.c mishandles a file's
user and group ownership during move (and copy with G_FILE_COPY_ALL_METADATA) operations from admin:// to
file:// URIs, because root privileges are unavailable. (CVE-2019-12449)
- daemon/gvfsdaemon.c in gvfsd from GNOME gvfs before 1.38.3, 1.40.x before 1.40.2, and 1.41.x before 1.41.3
opened a private D-Bus server socket without configuring an authorization rule. A local attacker could
connect to this server socket and issue D-Bus method calls. (Note that the server socket only accepts a
single connection, so the attacker would have to discover the server and connect to the socket before its
owner does.) (CVE-2019-12795)
