Ubuntu 22.04 LTS / 23.04 : LLVM Toolchain vulnerabilities (USN-6258-1)

medium Nessus Plugin ID 178947

Synopsis

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

Description

The remote Ubuntu 22.04 LTS / 23.04 host has packages installed that are affected by multiple vulnerabilities as referenced in the USN-6258-1 advisory.

It was discovered that LLVM Toolchain did not properly manage memory under certain circumstances. If a user were tricked into opening a specially crafted MLIR file, an attacker could possibly use this issue to cause LLVM Toolchain to crash, resulting in a denial of service. (CVE-2023-29932, CVE-2023-29934, CVE-2023-29939)

It was discovered that LLVM Toolchain did not properly manage memory under

certain circumstances. If a user were tricked into opening a specially

crafted MLIR file, an attacker could possibly use this issue to cause LLVM

Toolchain to crash, resulting in a denial of service. This issue only affected llvm-toolchain-15.
(CVE-2023-29933)

Tenable has extracted the preceding description block directly from the Ubuntu 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 packages.
