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

  - res_query in libresolv in glibc before 2.25 allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (NULL     pointer dereference and process crash). (CVE-2015-5180)

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

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

  - Stack-based buffer overflow in the clntudp_call     function in sunrpc/clnt_udp.c in the GNU C Library (aka     glibc or libc6) allows remote servers to cause a denial     of service (crash) or possibly unspecified other impact     via a flood of crafted ICMP and UDP     packets.(CVE-2016-4429)

  - Integer overflow in the strxfrm function in the GNU C     Library (aka glibc or libc6) before 2.21 allows     context-dependent attackers to cause a denial of     service (crash) or possibly execute arbitrary code via     a long string, which triggers a stack-based buffer     overflow.(CVE-2015-8982)

  - The posix_spawn_file_actions_addopen function in glibc     before 2.20 does not copy its path argument in     accordance with the POSIX specification, which allows     context-dependent attackers to trigger use-after-free     vulnerabilities.(CVE-2014-4043)

  - res_query in libresolv in glibc before 2.25 allows     remote attackers to cause a denial of service (NULL     pointer dereference and process crash).(CVE-2015-5180)

  - A buffer overflow has been discovered in the GNU C     Library (aka glibc or libc6) in the
    __mempcpy_avx512_no_vzeroupper function when particular     conditions are met. An attacker could use this     vulnerability to cause a denial of service or     potentially execute code.(CVE-2018-11237)

  - In the GNU C Library (aka glibc or libc6) through 2.29,     proceed_next_node in posix/regexec.c has a heap-based     buffer over-read via an attempted case-insensitive     regular-expression match.(CVE-2019-9169)

  - The iconv program in the GNU C Library (aka glibc or     libc6) 2.25 and earlier, when invoked with the -c     option, enters an infinite loop when processing invalid     multi-byte input sequences, leading to a denial of     service.(CVE-2016-10228)

  - The DNS stub resolver in the GNU C Library (aka glibc     or libc6) before version 2.26, when EDNS support is     enabled, will solicit large UDP responses from name     servers, potentially simplifying off-path DNS spoofing     attacks due to IP fragmentation.(CVE-2017-12132)

An update for glibc is now available for Red Hat Enterprise Linux 7.

Red Hat Product Security has rated this update as having a security impact of Moderate. A Common Vulnerability Scoring System (CVSS) base score, which gives a detailed severity rating, is available for each vulnerability from the CVE link(s) in the References section.

The glibc packages provide the standard C libraries (libc), POSIX thread libraries (libpthread), standard math libraries (libm), and the name service cache daemon (nscd) used by multiple programs on the system. Without these libraries, the Linux system cannot function correctly.

Security Fix(es) :

* glibc: realpath() buffer underflow when getcwd() returns relative path allows privilege escalation (CVE-2018-1000001)

* glibc: Buffer overflow in glob with GLOB_TILDE (CVE-2017-15670)

* glibc: Buffer overflow during unescaping of user names with the ~ operator (CVE-2017-15804)

* glibc: denial of service in getnetbyname function (CVE-2014-9402)

* glibc: DNS resolver NULL pointer dereference with crafted record type (CVE-2015-5180)

* glibc: Fragmentation attacks possible when EDNS0 is enabled (CVE-2017-12132)

For more details about the security issue(s), including the impact, a CVSS score, and other related information, refer to the CVE page(s) listed in the References section.

Red Hat would like to thank halfdog for reporting CVE-2018-1000001.
