The remote Oracle Linux 7 host has packages installed that are affected by multiple vulnerabilities as referenced in the ELSA-2018-3140 advisory.

  - The FoFiType1C::cvtGlyph function in fofi/FoFiType1C.cc in Poppler through 0.64.0 allows remote attackers     to cause a denial of service (infinite recursion) via a crafted PDF file, as demonstrated by pdftops.
    (CVE-2017-18267)

  - There is a heap-based buffer over-read in the function ft_font_face_hash of gxps-fonts.c in libgxps     through 0.3.0. A crafted input will lead to a remote denial of service attack. (CVE-2018-10733)

  - There is a stack-based buffer over-read in calling GLib in the function gxps_images_guess_content_type of     gxps-images.c in libgxps through 0.3.0 because it does not reject negative return values from a     g_input_stream_read call. A crafted input will lead to a remote denial of service attack. (CVE-2018-10767)

  - There is a NULL pointer dereference in the AnnotPath::getCoordsLength function in Annot.h in an Ubuntu     package for Poppler 0.24.5. A crafted input will lead to a remote denial of service attack. Later Ubuntu     packages such as for Poppler 0.41.0 are not affected. (CVE-2018-10768)

  - The get_cookies function in soup-cookie-jar.c in libsoup 2.63.2 allows attackers to have unspecified     impact via an empty hostname. (CVE-2018-12910)

  - Poppler through 0.62 contains an out of bounds read vulnerability due to an incorrect memory access that     is not mapped in its memory space, as demonstrated by pdfunite. This can result in memory corruption and     denial of service. This may be exploitable when a victim opens a specially crafted PDF file.
    (CVE-2018-13988)

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

According to the version of the libgxps package installed, the EulerOS installation on the remote host is affected by the following vulnerability :

  - There is a stack-based buffer over-read in calling GLib     in the function gxps_images_guess_content_type of     gxps-images.c in libgxps through 0.3.0 because it does     not reject negative return values from a     g_input_stream_read call. A crafted input will lead to     a remote denial of service attack.(CVE-2018-10767)

Note that Tenable Network Security has extracted the preceding description block directly from the EulerOS security advisory. Tenable has attempted to automatically clean and format it as much as possible without introducing additional issues.

Security Fix(es) :

  - libsoup: Crash in soup_cookie_jar.c:get_cookies() on     empty hostnames (CVE-2018-12910)

  - poppler: Infinite recursion in     fofi/FoFiType1C.cc:FoFiType1C::cvtGlyph() function     allows denial of service (CVE-2017-18267)

  - libgxps: heap based buffer over read in     ft_font_face_hash function of gxps-fonts.c     (CVE-2018-10733)

  - libgxps: Stack-based buffer overflow in calling glib in     gxps_images_guess_content_type of gcontenttype.c     (CVE-2018-10767)

  - poppler: NULL pointer dereference in     Annot.h:AnnotPath::getCoordsLength() allows for denial     of service via crafted PDF (CVE-2018-10768)

  - poppler: out of bounds read in pdfunite (CVE-2018-13988)

Additional Changes :

  - PackageKit is now aware of our SL7 minor release upgrade     tool.

libgxps 0.3.1 release.

  - Fix font scaling when converting xps to pdf

  - Handle errors returned by archive_read_data in     GXPSArchive

  - Ensure gxps_archive_read_entry() fills the GError in     case of failure

  - Make the pdf generated by xpstopdf to be 96 dpi

  - Fix OUTPUT FILE description in man pages

  - Clear the GError before trying to load an image again in     gxps_images_get_image()

  - Fix integer overflow in png decoder
