Ubuntu 16.04 ESM / 18.04 ESM / 20.04 LTS / 22.04 LTS / 23.04 : ReadyMedia vulnerabilities (USN-6398-1)

critical Nessus Plugin ID 181945

Language:

Synopsis

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

Description

The remote Ubuntu 16.04 ESM / 18.04 ESM / 20.04 LTS / 22.04 LTS / 23.04 host has a package installed that is affected by multiple vulnerabilities as referenced in the USN-6398-1 advisory.

 - A DNS rebinding issue in ReadyMedia (formerly MiniDLNA) before 1.3.1 allows a remote web server to exfiltrate media files. (CVE-2022-26505)

 - ReadyMedia (MiniDLNA) versions from 1.1.15 up to 1.3.2 is vulnerable to Buffer Overflow. The vulnerability is caused by incorrect validation logic when handling HTTP requests using chunked transport encoding. This results in other code later using attacker-controlled chunk values that exceed the length of the allocated buffer, resulting in out-of-bounds read/write. (CVE-2023-33476)

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 minidlna package.
