high Nessus Plugin ID 239496

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-2024:0637 advisory.

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

CVE-2024-41311:
In Libheif 1.17.6, insufficient checks in ImageOverlay::parse() decoding a heif file containing an overlay image with forged offsets can lead to an out-of-bounds read and write.

CVE-2024-25269:
libheif <= 1.17.6 contains a memory leak in the function JpegEncoder::Encode. This flaw allows an attacker to cause a denial of service attack.

CVE-2023-49464:
libheif v1.17.5 was discovered to contain a segmentation violation via the function UncompressedImageCodec::get_luma_bits_per_pixel_from_configuration_unci.

CVE-2023-49463:
libheif v1.17.5 was discovered to contain a segmentation violation via the function find_exif_tag at /libheif/exif.cc.

CVE-2023-49462:

CVE-2023-49460:

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