EulerOS Virtualization 2.5.2 : gnupg2 (EulerOS-SA-2019-1077)

high Nessus Plugin ID 122700

Synopsis

The remote EulerOS Virtualization host is missing a security update.

Description

According to the version of the gnupg2 package installed, the EulerOS Virtualization installation on the remote host is affected by the following vulnerability :

 - mainproc.c in GnuPG before 2.2.8 mishandles the original filename during decryption and verification actions, which allows remote attackers to spoof the output that GnuPG sends on file descriptor 2 to other programs that use the '--status-fd 2' option. For example, the OpenPGP data might represent an original filename that contains line feed characters in conjunction with GOODSIG or VALIDSIG status codes.(CVE-2018-12020)

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

Solution

Update the affected gnupg2 package.
