NewStart CGSL CORE 5.04 / MAIN 5.04 : libgxps Multiple Vulnerabilities (NS-SA-2019-0044)

medium Nessus Plugin ID 127223

Synopsis

The remote machine is affected by multiple vulnerabilities.

Description

The remote NewStart CGSL host, running version CORE 5.04 / MAIN 5.04, has libgxps packages installed that are affected by multiple vulnerabilities:

- There is a heap-based buffer over-read in the function ft_font_face_hash of gxps-fonts.c in libgxps through 0.3.0. A crafted input will lead to a remote denial of service attack. (CVE-2018-10733)

- There is a stack-based buffer over-read in calling GLib in the function gxps_images_guess_content_type of gxps- images.c in libgxps through 0.3.0 because it does not reject negative return values from a g_input_stream_read call. A crafted input will lead to a remote denial of service attack. (CVE-2018-10767)

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

Solution

Upgrade the vulnerable CGSL libgxps packages. Note that updated packages may not be available yet. Please contact ZTE for more information.
