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

  - The zsh shell is a command interpreter usable as an     interactive login shell and as a shell script command     processor. Zsh resembles the ksh shell (the Korn     shell), but includes many enhancements. Zsh supports     command line editing, built-in spelling correction,     programmable command completion, shell functions (with     autoloading), a history mechanism, and more.

  - Security fix(es):

  - In builtin.c in zsh before 5.4, when sh compatibility     mode is used, there is a NULL pointer dereference     during processing of the cd command with no argument if     HOME is not set.(CVE-2017-18205)

  - zsh before 5.0.7 allows evaluation of the initial     values of integer variables imported from the     environment (instead of treating them as literal     numbers). That could allow local privilege escalation,     under some specific and atypical conditions where zsh     is being invoked in privilege-elevation contexts when     the environment has not been properly sanitized, such     as when zsh is invoked by sudo on systems where     'env_reset' has been disabled.(CVE-2014-10070)

  - In exec.c in zsh before 5.0.7, there is a buffer     overflow for very long fds in the 'i1/4zi1/4+ fd'     syntax.(CVE-2014-10071)

  - A buffer overflow flaw was found in the zsh shell     symbolic link resolver. A local, unprivileged user can     create a specially crafted directory path which leads     to a buffer overflow in the context of the user trying     to do a symbolic link resolution in the aforementioned     path. If the user affected is privileged, this leads to     privilege escalation.(CVE-2017-18206)

  - In params.c in zsh through 5.4.2, there is a crash     during a copy of an empty hash table, as demonstrated     by typeset -p.(CVE-2018-7549)

The remote NewStart CGSL host, running version CORE 5.04 / MAIN 5.04, has zsh packages installed that are affected by multiple vulnerabilities:

  - A buffer overflow flaw was found in the zsh shell file     descriptor redirection functionality. An attacker could     use this flaw to cause a denial of service by crashing     the user shell. (CVE-2014-10071)

  - A NULL pointer dereference flaw was found in the code     responsible for the cd builtin command of the zsh     package. An attacker could use this flaw to cause a     denial of service by crashing the user shell.
    (CVE-2017-18205)

  - A buffer overflow flaw was found in the zsh shell check     path functionality. A local, unprivileged user can     create a specially crafted message file, which, if used     to set a custom you have new mail message, leads to     code execution in the context of the user who receives     the message. If the user affected is privileged, this     leads to privilege escalation. (CVE-2018-1100)

  - A buffer overflow flaw was found in the zsh shell auto-     complete functionality. A local, unprivileged user can     create a specially crafted directory path which leads to     code execution in the context of the user who tries to     use auto-complete to traverse the before mentioned path.
    If the user affected is privileged, this leads to     privilege escalation. (CVE-2018-1083)

  - zsh through version 5.4.2 is vulnerable to a stack-based     buffer overflow in the exec.c:hashcmd() function. A     local attacker could exploit this to cause a denial of     service. (CVE-2018-1071)

  - A NULL pointer dereference flaw was found in the code     responsible for saving hashtables of the zsh package. An     attacker could use this flaw to cause a denial of     service by crashing the user shell. (CVE-2018-7549)

  - A buffer overflow flaw was found in the zsh shell     symbolic link resolver. A local, unprivileged user can     create a specially crafted directory path which leads to     a buffer overflow in the context of the user trying to     do a symbolic link resolution in the aforementioned     path. If the user affected is privileged, this leads to     privilege escalation. (CVE-2017-18206)

    An attacker could exploit this vulnerability to cause a     denial of service condition on the target.

The remote SUSE Linux SLES11 host has a package installed that is affected by multiple vulnerabilities as referenced in the SUSE-SU-2022:14910-1 advisory.

  - zsh before 5.0.7 allows evaluation of the initial values of integer variables imported from the     environment (instead of treating them as literal numbers). That could allow local privilege escalation,     under some specific and atypical conditions where zsh is being invoked in privilege-elevation contexts     when the environment has not been properly sanitized, such as when zsh is invoked by sudo on systems where     env_reset has been disabled. (CVE-2014-10070)

  - In exec.c in zsh before 5.0.7, there is a buffer overflow for very long fds in the >& fd syntax.
    (CVE-2014-10071)

  - In utils.c in zsh before 5.0.6, there is a buffer overflow when scanning very long directory paths for     symbolic links. (CVE-2014-10072)

  - In zsh before 5.3, an off-by-one error resulted in undersized buffers that were intended to support     PATH_MAX characters. (CVE-2016-10714)

  - In builtin.c in zsh before 5.4, when sh compatibility mode is used, there is a NULL pointer dereference     during processing of the cd command with no argument if HOME is not set. (CVE-2017-18205)

  - In utils.c in zsh before 5.4, symlink expansion had a buffer overflow. (CVE-2017-18206)

  - An issue was discovered in zsh before 5.6. The beginning of a #! script file was mishandled, potentially     leading to an execve call to a program named on the second line. (CVE-2018-0502)

  - zsh through version 5.4.2 is vulnerable to a stack-based buffer overflow in the exec.c:hashcmd() function.
    A local attacker could exploit this to cause a denial of service. (CVE-2018-1071)

  - Zsh before version 5.4.2-test-1 is vulnerable to a buffer overflow in the shell autocomplete     functionality. A local unprivileged user can create a specially crafted directory path which leads to code     execution in the context of the user who tries to use autocomplete to traverse the before mentioned path.
    If the user affected is privileged, this leads to privilege escalation. (CVE-2018-1083)

  - An issue was discovered in zsh before 5.6. Shebang lines exceeding 64 characters were truncated,     potentially leading to an execve call to a program name that is a substring of the intended one.
    (CVE-2018-13259)

  - In params.c in zsh through 5.4.2, there is a crash during a copy of an empty hash table, as demonstrated     by typeset -p. (CVE-2018-7549)

  - In Zsh before 5.8, attackers able to execute commands can regain privileges dropped by the --no-PRIVILEGED     option. Zsh fails to overwrite the saved uid, so the original privileges can be restored by executing     MODULE_PATH=/dir/with/module zmodload with a module that calls setuid(). (CVE-2019-20044)
