EulerOS 2.0 SP3 : libguestfs-winsupport (EulerOS-SA-2019-2253)

high Nessus Plugin ID 130715

Synopsis

The remote EulerOS host is missing a security update.

Description

According to the version of the libguestfs-winsupport package installed, the EulerOS installation on the remote host is affected by the following vulnerability :

 - An integer underflow issue exists in ntfs-3g 2017.3.23.
 A local attacker could potentially exploit this by running /bin/ntfs-3g with specially crafted arguments from a specially crafted directory to cause a heap buffer overflow, resulting in a crash or the ability to execute arbitrary code. In installations where /bin/ntfs-3g is a setuid-root binary, this could lead to a local escalation of privileges.(CVE-2019-9755)

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 libguestfs-winsupport package.
