Synopsis

The remote EulerOS host is missing multiple security updates.

Description

According to the versions of the cloud-init package installed, the EulerOS installation on the remote host is affected by the following vulnerabilities :

 When a non-x86 platform is detected, cloud-init grants root access to a hardcoded url with a local IP address. To prevent this,cloud-init default configurations disable platform enumeration.(CVE-2024-6174)

 cloud-initthrough 25.1.2 includes the systemd socket unitcloud-init-hotplugd.socket with defaultSocketModethat grants 0666 permissions, making it world-writable.This is used for the '/run/cloud-init/hook-hotplug-cmd' FIFO. An unprivileged user could triggerhotplug-hook commands.(CVE-2024-11584)

Tenable has extracted the preceding description block directly from the EulerOS cloud-init security advisory.

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