mercurial was updated to fix three security issues.

These security issues were fixed :

  - CVE-2016-3069: Arbitrary code execution when converting     Git repos (bsc#973176).

  - CVE-2016-3068: Arbitrary code execution with Git     subrepos (bsc#973177).

  - CVE-2016-3630: Remote code execution in binary delta     decoding (bsc#973175).

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

Red Hat Product Security has rated this update as having a security impact of Important. 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.

Mercurial is a fast, lightweight source control management system designed for efficient handling of very large distributed projects.

Security Fix(es) :

* It was discovered that Mercurial failed to properly check Git sub-repository URLs. A Mercurial repository that includes a Git sub-repository with a specially crafted URL could cause Mercurial to execute arbitrary code. (CVE-2016-3068)

* It was discovered that the Mercurial convert extension failed to sanitize special characters in Git repository names. A Git repository with a specially crafted name could cause Mercurial to execute arbitrary code when the Git repository was converted to a Mercurial repository. (CVE-2016-3069)

Red Hat would like to thank Blake Burkhart for reporting these issues.

Security Fix(es) :

  - It was discovered that Mercurial failed to properly     check Git sub- repository URLs. A Mercurial repository     that includes a Git sub-repository with a specially     crafted URL could cause Mercurial to execute arbitrary     code. (CVE-2016-3068)

  - It was discovered that the Mercurial convert extension     failed to sanitize special characters in Git repository     names. A Git repository with a specially crafted name     could cause Mercurial to execute arbitrary code when the     Git repository was converted to a Mercurial repository.
    (CVE-2016-3069)

The remote host is affected by the vulnerability described in GLSA-201612-19 (Mercurial: Multiple vulnerabilities)

    Multiple vulnerabilities have been discovered in Mercurial. Please       review the CVE identifier and bug reports referenced for details.
  Impact :

  Workaround :

    There is no known workaround at this time.

An update of the mercurial package has been released.

Mercurial reports :

CVE-2016-3630: Remote code execution in binary delta decoding

CVE-2016-3068: Arbitrary code execution with Git subrepos

CVE-2016-3069: Arbitrary code execution when converting Git repos

It was discovered that Mercurial failed to properly check Git sub-repository URLs. A Mercurial repository that includes a Git sub-repository with a specially crafted URL could cause Mercurial to execute arbitrary code. (CVE-2016-3068)

The binary delta decoder in Mercurial before 3.7.3 allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary code via a (1) clone, (2) push, or (3) pull command, related to (a) a list sizing rounding error and (b) short records. (CVE-2016-3630)

It was discovered that the Mercurial convert extension failed to sanitize special characters in Git repository names. A Git repository with a specially crafted name could cause Mercurial to execute arbitrary code when the Git repository was converted to a Mercurial repository. (CVE-2016-3069)

An update of [apache-tomcat,mercurial] packages for PhotonOS has been released.

The remote MiracleLinux 7 host has a package installed that is affected by multiple vulnerabilities as referenced in the AXSA:2016-223:01 advisory.

    Mercurial is a fast, lightweight source control management system designed     for efficient handling of very large distributed projects.

    CVE-2016-3068     Mercurial before 3.7.3 allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary     code via a crafted git ext:: URL when cloning a subrepository.
    CVE-2016-3069     Mercurial before 3.7.3 allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary     code via a crafted name when converting a Git repository.

Tenable has extracted the preceding description block directly from the MiracleLinux security advisory.

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

Several vulnerabilities have been discovered in Mercurial, a distributed version control system. The Common Vulnerabilities and Exposures project identifies the following issues :

  - CVE-2016-3068     Blake Burkhart discovered that Mercurial allows URLs for     Git subrepositories that could result in arbitrary code     execution on clone.

  - CVE-2016-3069     Blake Burkhart discovered that Mercurial allows     arbitrary code execution when converting Git     repositories with specially crafted names.

  - CVE-2016-3630     It was discovered that Mercurial does not properly     perform bounds-checking in its binary delta decoder,     which may be exploitable for remote code execution via     clone, push or pull.

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

  - It was discovered that Mercurial failed to properly     check Git sub-repository URLs. A Mercurial repository     that includes a Git sub-repository with a specially     crafted URL could cause Mercurial to execute arbitrary     code. (CVE-2016-3068)

  - It was discovered that the Mercurial convert extension     failed to sanitize special characters in Git repository     names. A Git repository with a specially crafted name     could cause Mercurial to execute arbitrary code when     the Git repository was converted to a Mercurial     repository. (CVE-2016-3069)

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.
