Linux Distros Unpatched Vulnerability : CVE-2019-19624

medium Nessus Plugin ID 222721

Language:

Synopsis

The Linux/Unix host has one or more packages installed with a vulnerability that the vendor indicates will not be patched.

Description

The Linux/Unix host has one or more packages installed that are impacted by a vulnerability without a vendor supplied patch available.

 - An out-of-bounds read was discovered in OpenCV before 4.1.1. Specifically, variable coarsest_scale is assumed to be greater than or equal to finest_scale within the calc()/ocl_calc() functions in dis_flow.cpp. However, this is not true when dealing with small images, leading to an out-of-bounds read of the heap-allocated arrays Ux and Uy. (CVE-2019-19624)

Note that Nessus relies on the presence of the package as reported by the vendor.

Solution

There is no known solution at this time.
