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

  - After tar_close(), libtar.c releases the memory pointed to by pointer t. After tar_close() is called in     the list() function, it continues to use pointer t: free_longlink_longname(t->th_buf) . As a result, the     released memory is used (use-after-free). (CVE-2021-33640)

  - An attacker who submits a crafted tar file with size in header struct being 0 may be able to trigger an     calling of malloc(0) for a variable gnu_longlink, causing an out-of-bounds read. (CVE-2021-33643)

  - An attacker who submits a crafted tar file with size in header struct being 0 may be able to trigger an     calling of malloc(0) for a variable gnu_longname, causing an out-of-bounds read. (CVE-2021-33644)

  - The th_read() function doesn't free a variable t->th_buf.gnu_longlink after allocating memory, which may     cause a memory leak. (CVE-2021-33645)

  - The th_read() function doesn't free a variable t->th_buf.gnu_longname after allocating memory, which may     cause a memory leak. (CVE-2021-33646)

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.
