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

  - The base64decode function in base64.c in     libimobiledevice libplist through 1.12 allows attackers     to obtain sensitive information from process memory or     cause a denial of service (buffer over-read) via split     encoded Apple Property List data.(CVE-2017-5209)

  - The base64encode function in base64.c in     libimobiledevice libplist 1.12 allows local users to     cause a denial of service (out-of-bounds read) via a     crafted plist file.(CVE-2017-6437)

  - The parse_data_node function in bplist.c in     libimobiledevice libplist 1.12 allows local users to     cause a denial of service (memory allocation error) via     a crafted plist file.(CVE-2017-6440)
