EulerOS 2.0 SP10 : util-linux (EulerOS-SA-2024-1581)

high Nessus Plugin ID 195254

Synopsis

The remote EulerOS host is missing a security update.

Description

According to the versions of the util-linux packages installed, the EulerOS installation on the remote host is affected by the following vulnerabilities :

 - wall in util-linux through 2.40, often installed with setgid tty permissions, allows escape sequences to be sent to other users' terminals through argv. (Specifically, escape sequences received from stdin are blocked, but escape sequences received from argv are not blocked.) There may be plausible scenarios where this leads to account takeover. (CVE-2024-28085)

Note that Tenable Network Security has extracted the preceding description block directly from the EulerOS security advisory. Tenable has attempted to automatically clean and format it as much as possible without introducing additional issues.

Solution

Update the affected util-linux packages.
