medium Nessus Plugin ID 129933

Synopsis

The remote machine is affected by multiple vulnerabilities.

Description

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

- In ZZIPlib 0.13.67, there is a bus error caused by loading of a misaligned address (when handling disk64_trailer local entries) in
__zzip_fetch_disk_trailer (zzip/zip.c). Remote attackers could leverage this vulnerability to cause a denial of service via a crafted zip file. (CVE-2018-6541)

- An issue was discovered in ZZIPlib through 0.13.69.
There is a memory leak triggered in the function
__zzip_parse_root_directory in zip.c, which will lead to a denial of service attack. (CVE-2018-16548)

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 zziplib packages. Note that updated packages may not be available yet. Please contact ZTE for more information.
