Linux Distros Unpatched Vulnerability : CVE-2022-0485

medium Nessus Plugin ID 230055

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.

- A flaw was found in the copying tool `nbdcopy` of libnbd. When performing multi-threaded copies using asynchronous nbd calls, nbdcopy was blindly treating the completion of an asynchronous command as successful, rather than checking the *error parameter. This could result in the silent creation of a corrupted destination image. (CVE-2022-0485)

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

Solution

There is no known solution at this time.
