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 multiple vulnerabilities as referenced in the ALAS2LIBREOFFICE-2025-007 advisory.Improper Limitation of a Pathname to a Restricted Directory ('Path Traversal') vulnerability in The Document Foundation LibreOffice allows Absolute Path Traversal.
An attacker can write to arbitrary locations, albeit suffixed with .ttf, by supplying a file in a format that supports embedded font files.
This issue affects LibreOffice: from 24.8 before < 24.8.4. (CVE-2024-12425)
Exposure of Environmental Variables and arbitrary INI file values to an Unauthorized Actor vulnerability in The Document Foundation LibreOffice.
URLs could be constructed which expanded environmental variables or INI file values, so potentially sensitive information could be exfiltrated to a remote server on opening a document containing such links.
This issue affects LibreOffice: from 24.8 before < 24.8.4. (CVE-2024-12426)
Unchecked script execution in Graphic on-click binding in affected LibreOffice versions allows an attacker to create a document which without prompt will execute scripts built-into LibreOffice on clicking a graphic. Such scripts were previously deemed trusted but are now deemed untrusted. (CVE-2024-3044)
Tenable has extracted the preceding description block directly from the tested product security advisory.
Note that Nessus has not tested for these issues but has instead relied only on the application's self-reported version number.
