NewStart CGSL CORE 5.04 / MAIN 5.04 : tcpdump Multiple Vulnerabilities (NS-SA-2019-0071)

critical Nessus Plugin ID 127275

Language:

Synopsis

The remote NewStart CGSL host is affected by multiple vulnerabilities.

Description

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

- The IPv6 routing header parser in tcpdump before 4.9.2 has a buffer over-read in print-rt6.c:rt6_print().
(CVE-2017-12986, CVE-2017-13725)

- tcpdump 4.9.0 allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (heap-based buffer over-read and application crash) via crafted packet data. The crash occurs in the EXTRACT_16BITS function, called from the stp_print function for the Spanning Tree Protocol. (CVE-2017-11108)

- tcpdump 4.9.0 has a heap-based buffer over-read in the lldp_print function in print-lldp.c, related to util-print.c. (CVE-2017-11541)

- tcpdump 4.9.0 has a heap-based buffer over-read in the pimv1_print function in print-pim.c.
(CVE-2017-11542)

- tcpdump 4.9.0 has a buffer overflow in the sliplink_print function in print-sl.c. (CVE-2017-11543)

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

Solution

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