TencentOS Server 4: frr (TSSA-2024:0498)

high Nessus Plugin ID 238876

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-2024:0498 advisory.

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

CVE-2024-44070:
An issue was discovered in FRRouting (FRR) through 10.1. bgp_attr_encap in bgpd/bgp_attr.c does not check the actual remaining stream length before taking the TLV value.

CVE-2024-31949:
In FRRouting (FRR) through 9.1, an infinite loop can occur when receiving a MP/GR capability as a dynamic capability because malformed data results in a pointer not advancing.

CVE-2024-31948:
In FRRouting (FRR) through 9.1, an attacker using a malformed Prefix SID attribute in a BGP UPDATE packet can cause the bgpd daemon to crash.

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.
