EulerOS Virtualization 3.0.1.0 : file (EulerOS-SA-2019-1424)

high Nessus Plugin ID 124927

Synopsis

The remote EulerOS Virtualization host is missing multiple security updates.

Description

According to the versions of the file packages installed, the EulerOS Virtualization installation on the remote host is affected by the following vulnerabilities :

- A denial of service flaw was found in the File Information (fileinfo) extension rules for detecting AWK files. A remote attacker could use this flaw to cause a PHP application using fileinfo to consume an excessive amount of CPU.(CVE-2013-7345)

- A denial of service flaw was found in the way the File Information (fileinfo) extension parsed certain Composite Document Format (CDF) files. A remote attacker could use this flaw to crash a PHP application using fileinfo via a specially crafted CDF file.(CVE-2014-3479)

- An ouf-of-bounds read flaw was found in the way the file utility processed certain Pascal strings. A remote attacker could cause an application using the file utility (for example, PHP using the fileinfo module) to crash if it was used to identify the type of the attacker-supplied file.(CVE-2014-9652)

- A denial of service flaw was found in the way the File Information (fileinfo) extension parsed certain Composite Document Format (CDF) files. A remote attacker could use this flaw to crash a PHP application using fileinfo via a specially crafted CDF file.(CVE-2014-0207)

- A denial of service flaw was found in the way the File Information (fileinfo) extension parsed certain Composite Document Format (CDF) files. A remote attacker could use this flaw to crash a PHP application using fileinfo via a specially crafted CDF file.(CVE-2014-3480)

- It was found that the fix for CVE-2012-1571 was incomplete the File Information (fileinfo) extension did not correctly parse certain Composite Document Format (CDF) files. A remote attacker could use this flaw to crash a PHP application using fileinfo via a specially crafted CDF file.(CVE-2014-3587)

- A buffer overflow flaw was found in the way the File Information (fileinfo) extension processed certain Pascal strings. A remote attacker able to make a PHP application using fileinfo convert a specially crafted Pascal string provided by an image file could cause that application to crash.(CVE-2014-3478)

- Multiple flaws were found in the File Information (fileinfo) extension regular expression rules for detecting various files. A remote attacker could use either of these flaws to cause a PHP application using fileinfo to consume an excessive amount of CPU.(CVE-2014-3538)

- A denial of service flaw was found in the way the File Information (fileinfo) extension parsed certain Composite Document Format (CDF) files. A remote attacker could use this flaw to crash a PHP application using fileinfo via a specially crafted CDF file.(CVE-2014-3487)

- A denial of service flaw was found in the way the File Information (fileinfo) extension handled search rules.
A remote attacker could use this flaw to cause a PHP application using fileinfo to crash or consume an excessive amount of CPU.(CVE-2014-2270)

- A flaw was found in the way the File Information (fileinfo) extension parsed Executable and Linkable Format (ELF) files. A remote attacker could use this flaw to cause a PHP application using fileinfo to consume an excessive amount of system resources.(CVE-2014-8117)

- A denial of service flaw was found in the way the File Information (fileinfo) extension parsed certain Composite Document Format (CDF) files. A remote attacker could use this flaw to crash a PHP application using fileinfo via a specially crafted CDF file.(CVE-2014-0237)

- A flaw was found in the way the File Information (fileinfo) extension parsed Executable and Linkable Format (ELF) files. A remote attacker could use this flaw to cause a PHP application using fileinfo to crash or disclose certain portions of server memory.(CVE-2014-9653)

- A denial of service flaw was found in the way the File Information (fileinfo) extension parsed certain Composite Document Format (CDF) files. A remote attacker could use this flaw to crash a PHP application using fileinfo via a specially crafted CDF file.(CVE-2014-0238)

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
