high Nessus Plugin ID 180767

Language:

Synopsis

The remote Oracle Linux host is missing one or more security updates.

Description

The remote Oracle Linux 7 host has packages installed that are affected by multiple vulnerabilities as referenced in the ELSA-2019-2052 advisory.

 - The cjpeg utility in libjpeg allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (NULL pointer dereference and application crash) or execute arbitrary code via a crafted file. (CVE-2016-3616)

 - An issue was discovered in libjpeg 9a. The get_text_rgb_row function in rdppm.c allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (Segmentation fault) via a crafted file. (CVE-2018-11214)

 - An issue was discovered in libjpeg 9a and 9d. The alloc_sarray function in jmemmgr.c allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (divide-by-zero error) via a crafted file. (CVE-2018-11212)

 - An issue was discovered in libjpeg 9a. The get_text_gray_row function in rdppm.c allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (Segmentation fault) via a crafted file. (CVE-2018-11213)

 - libjpeg 9c has a large loop because read_pixel in rdtarga.c mishandles EOF. (CVE-2018-11813)

 - get_8bit_row in rdbmp.c in libjpeg-turbo through 1.5.90 and MozJPEG through 3.3.1 allows attackers to cause a denial of service (heap-based buffer over-read and application crash) via a crafted 8-bit BMP in which one or more of the color indices is out of range for the number of palette entries. (CVE-2018-14498)

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