EulerOS 2.0 SP9 : gd (EulerOS-SA-2021-2683)

high Nessus Plugin ID 155277

Synopsis

The remote EulerOS host is missing multiple security updates.

Description

According to the versions of the gd package installed, the EulerOS installation on the remote host is affected by the following vulnerabilities :

 - read_header_tga in gd_tga.c in the GD Graphics Library (aka LibGD) through 2.3.2 allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (out-of-bounds read) via a crafted TGA file. (CVE-2021-38115)

 - ** DISPUTED ** gdImageGd2Ptr in gd_gd2.c in the GD Graphics Library (aka LibGD) through 2.3.2 has a double free. NOTE: the vendor's position is 'The GD2 image format is a proprietary image format of libgd. It has to be regarded as being obsolete, and should only be used for development and testing purposes.' (CVE-2021-40145)

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 gd packages.
