TencentOS Server 4: python-uamqp (TSSA-2024:0578)

high Nessus Plugin ID 238505

Synopsis

The remote TencentOS Server 4 host is missing one or more security updates.

Description

The version of Tencent Linux installed on the remote TencentOS Server 4 host is prior to tested version. It is, therefore, affected by multiple vulnerabilities as referenced in the TSSA-2024:0578 advisory.

Package updates are available for TencentOS Server 4 that fix the following vulnerabilities:

CVE-2024-21646:
Azure uAMQP is a general purpose C library for AMQP 1.0. The UAMQP library is used by several clients to implement AMQP protocol communication. When clients using this library receive a crafted binary type data, an integer overflow or wraparound or memory safety issue can occur and may cause remote code execution. This vulnerability has been patched in release 2024-01-01.

CVE-2024-27099:
The uAMQP is a C library for AMQP 1.0 communication to Azure Cloud Services. When processing an incorrect `AMQP_VALUE` failed state, may cause a double free problem. This may cause a RCE. Update submodule with commit 2ca42b6e4e098af2d17e487814a91d05f6ae4987.

Tenable has extracted the preceding description block directly from the Tencent Linux security advisory.

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

Solution

Update the affected packages.
