EulerOS 2.0 SP5 : ant (EulerOS-SA-2021-2651)

medium Nessus Plugin ID 155281

Synopsis

The remote EulerOS host is missing multiple security updates.

Description

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

 - When reading a specially crafted TAR archive an Apache Ant build can be made to allocate large amounts of memory that finally leads to an out of memory error, even for small inputs. This can be used to disrupt builds using Apache Ant. Apache Ant prior to 1.9.16 and 1.10.11 were affected. (CVE-2021-36373)

 - When reading a specially crafted ZIP archive, or a derived formats, an Apache Ant build can be made to allocate large amounts of memory that leads to an out of memory error, even for small inputs. This can be used to disrupt builds using Apache Ant. Commonly used derived formats from ZIP archives are for instance JAR files and many office files. Apache Ant prior to 1.9.16 and 1.10.11 were affected. (CVE-2021-36374)

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 ant packages.
