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

    nscd: Stack-based buffer overflow in netgroup cache If the Name Service Cache Daemon's (nscd) fixed size     cache is exhausted by client requests then a subsequent client request for netgroup data may result in a     stack-based buffer overflow. This flaw was introduced in glibc 2.15 when the cache was added to nscd. This     vulnerability is only present in the nscd binary.(CVE-2024-33599)

    nscd: netgroup cache may terminate daemon on memory allocation failure The Name Service Cache Daemon's     (nscd) netgroup cache uses xmalloc or xrealloc and these functions may terminate the process due to a     memory allocation failure resulting in a denial of service to the clients.  The flaw was introduced in     glibc 2.15 when the cache was added to nscd.This vulnerability is only present in the nscd     binary.(CVE-2024-33601)

    nscd: Null pointer crashes after notfound response If the Name Service Cache Daemon's (nscd) cache fails     to add a not-found netgroup response to the cache, the client request can result in a null pointer     dereference.  This flaw was introduced in glibc 2.15 when the     cache was added to nscd.This vulnerability is only present in the nscd binary.(CVE-2024-33600)

    nscd: netgroup cache assumes NSS callback uses in-buffer strings The Name Service Cache Daemon's (nscd)     netgroup cache can corrupt memory when the NSS callback does not store all strings in the provided     buffer.The flaw was introduced in glibc 2.15 when the cache was added to nscd.This vulnerability is only     present in the nscd binary.(CVE-2024-33602)

    The iconv() function in the GNU C Library versions 2.39 and older may overflow the output buffer passed to     it by up to 4 bytes when converting strings to the ISO-2022-CN-EXT character set, which may be used to     crash an application or overwrite a neighbouring variable.(CVE-2024-2961)

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

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

The Linux/Unix host has one or more packages installed that are impacted by a vulnerability without a vendor supplied patch available.

  - nscd: Stack-based buffer overflow in netgroup cache If the Name Service Cache Daemon's (nscd) fixed size     cache is exhausted by client requests then a subsequent client request for netgroup data may result in a     stack-based buffer overflow.

Note that Nessus relies on the presence of the package as reported by the vendor.

The version of AHV installed on the remote host is prior to 20230302.102005. It is, therefore, affected by multiple vulnerabilities as referenced in the NXSA-AHV-20230302.101026 advisory.

  - A crafted NTFS image can trigger a heap-based buffer overflow, caused by an unsanitized attribute in     ntfs_get_attribute_value, in NTFS-3G < 2021.8.22. (CVE-2021-39263)

  - EDK2's Network Package is susceptible to a buffer overflow vulnerability when processing DNS Servers     option from a DHCPv6 Advertise message. This vulnerability can be exploited by an attacker to gain     unauthorized access and potentially lead to a loss of Confidentiality, Integrity and/or Availability.
    (CVE-2023-45234)

  - Certain DNSSEC aspects of the DNS protocol (in RFC 4033, 4034, 4035, 6840, and related RFCs) allow remote     attackers to cause a denial of service (CPU consumption) via one or more DNSSEC responses, aka the     KeyTrap issue. One of the concerns is that, when there is a zone with many DNSKEY and RRSIG records, the     protocol specification implies that an algorithm must evaluate all combinations of DNSKEY and RRSIG     records. (CVE-2023-50387)

  - The Closest Encloser Proof aspect of the DNS protocol (in RFC 5155 when RFC 9276 guidance is skipped)     allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (CPU consumption for SHA-1 computations) via DNSSEC     responses in a random subdomain attack, aka the NSEC3 issue. The RFC 5155 specification implies that an     algorithm must perform thousands of iterations of a hash function in certain situations. (CVE-2023-50868)

  - close_altfile in filename.c in less before 606 omits shell_quote calls for LESSCLOSE. (CVE-2022-48624)
