SUSE SLES15 Security Update : libslirp (SUSE-SU-2022:1314-1)

low Nessus Plugin ID 160093

Language:

Synopsis

The remote SUSE host is missing one or more security updates.

Description

The remote SUSE Linux SLES15 / SLES_SAP15 host has packages installed that are affected by multiple vulnerabilities as referenced in the SUSE-SU-2022:1314-1 advisory.

 NOTE: this update was retracted, as the bootp fix was incorrect and breaks DHCP usage in qemu.

 - CVE-2021-3592: Fixed invalid pointer initialization may lead to information disclosure (bootp) (bsc#1187364).
 - CVE-2021-3594: Fixed invalid pointer initialization may lead to information disclosure (udp) (bsc#1187367).
 - CVE-2021-3595: Fixed invalid pointer initialization may lead to information disclosure (tftp) (bsc#1187366).

Tenable has extracted the preceding description block directly from the SUSE security advisory.

Note that Nessus has not tested for these issues but has instead relied only on the application's self-reported version number.

Solution

Update the affected libslirp-devel and / or libslirp0 packages.
