high Nessus Plugin ID 147536

Synopsis

The remote EulerOS Virtualization for ARM 64 host is missing multiple security updates.

Description

According to the versions of the ruby packages installed, the EulerOS Virtualization for ARM 64 installation on the remote host is affected by the following vulnerabilities :

- A NULL pointer dereference vulnerability was found in Onigmo in the way it handled certain types of 'subexp' regular expressions. A remote attacker could exploit this flaw by providing a malformed regular expression that when processed by an application linked to Onigmo, would crash the application, causing a denial of service.(CVE-2019-16161)

- An out-of-bounds read vulnerability was found in Onigmo in the way it handled wide characters in regular expressions. A remote attacker could exploit this flaw by providing a malformed regular expression that when processed by an application linked to Onigmo, would crash the application and cause a denial of service.(CVE-2019-16162)

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 ruby packages.
