FreeBSD : anki -- multiple vulnerabilities (ce54d883-b060-11f1-b187-901b0edee044)

high Nessus Plugin ID 345977

Synopsis

The remote FreeBSD host is missing one or more security-related updates.

Description

The version of FreeBSD installed on the remote host is prior to tested version. It is, therefore, affected by a vulnerability as referenced in the ce54d883-b060-11f1-b187-901b0edee044 advisory.

Abdo Hasani reports:
Imported note HTML may execute inside an embedded image-occlusion document that retains the editor profile's desktop API credentials. This could cross the boundary between untrusted note content and privileged desktop operations.
An improper path validation vulnerability allows an attacker to execute arbitrary code on a victim's system when they interact with a malicious flashcard deck. This vulnerability is triggered when a user right-clicks an image within the editor and selects the Open image action; if an embedded <img> tag contains a path with a dangerous extension in its src attribute, the operating system may execute the file.

Tenable has extracted the preceding description block directly from the FreeBSD 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 packages.
