high Nessus Plugin ID 194871

Language:

Synopsis

The remote Amazon Linux 2 host is missing a security update.

Description

The version of libreoffice installed on the remote host is prior to 5.3.6.1-21. It is, therefore, affected by a vulnerability as referenced in the ALAS2LIBREOFFICE-2024-003 advisory.

 - Improper Input Validation vulnerability in GStreamer integration of The Document Foundation LibreOffice allows an attacker to execute arbitrary GStreamer plugins. In affected versions the filename of the embedded video is not sufficiently escaped when passed to GStreamer enabling an attacker to run arbitrary gstreamer plugins depending on what plugins are installed on the target system. (CVE-2023-6185)

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

Solution

Run 'yum update libreoffice' to update your system.
