high Nessus Plugin ID 104865

Synopsis

The remote Red Hat host is missing one or more security updates for tcmu-runner.

Description

The remote Redhat Enterprise Linux 7 host has packages installed that are affected by multiple vulnerabilities as referenced in the RHSA-2017:3277 advisory.

- tcmu-runner: glfs handler allows local DoS via crafted CheckConfig strings (CVE-2017-1000198)

- tcmu-runner: qcow handler opens up an information leak via the CheckConfig D-Bus method (CVE-2017-1000199)

- tcmu-runner: UnregisterHandler D-Bus method in tcmu-runner daemon for internal handler causes DoS (CVE-2017-1000200)

- tcmu-runner: UnregisterHandler dbus method in tcmu-runner daemon for non-existing handler causes DoS (CVE-2017-1000201)

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

Solution

Update the RHEL tcmu-runner package based on the guidance in RHSA-2017:3277.
