EulerOS Virtualization 2.12.0 : libarchive (EulerOS-SA-2026-2103)

high Nessus Plugin ID 319417

Synopsis

The remote EulerOS Virtualization host is missing a security update.

Description

According to the versions of the libarchive package installed, the EulerOS Virtualization installation on the remote host is affected by the following vulnerabilities :

 A flaw was identified in the RAR5 archive decompression logic of the libarchive library, specifically within the archive_read_data() processing path. When a specially crafted RAR5 archive is processed, the decompression routine may enter a state where internal logic prevents forward progress. This condition results in an infinite loop that continuously consumes CPU resources. Because the archive passes checksum validation and appears structurally valid, affected applications cannot detect the issue before processing. This can allow attackers to cause persistent denial-of-service conditions in services that automatically process archives.(CVE-2026-4111)

Tenable has extracted the preceding description block directly from the EulerOS Virtualization libarchive security advisory.

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

Solution

Update the affected libarchive packages.
