This update for procps fixes the following security issues :

CVE-2018-1122: Prevent local privilege escalation in top. If a user ran top with HOME unset in an attacker-controlled directory, the attacker could have achieved privilege escalation by exploiting one of several vulnerabilities in the config_file() function (bsc#1092100).

CVE-2018-1123: Prevent denial of service in ps via mmap buffer overflow. Inbuilt protection in ps maped a guard page at the end of the overflowed buffer, ensuring that the impact of this flaw is limited to a crash (temporary denial of service) (bsc#1092100).

CVE-2018-1124: Prevent multiple integer overflows leading to a heap corruption in file2strvec function. This allowed a privilege escalation for a local attacker who can create entries in procfs by starting processes, which could result in crashes or arbitrary code execution in proc utilities run by other users (bsc#1092100).

CVE-2018-1125: Prevent stack-based buffer overflow in pgrep. This vulnerability was mitigated by FORTIFY limiting the impact to a crash (bsc#1092100).

CVE-2018-1126: Ensure correct integer size in proc/alloc.* to prevent truncation/integer overflow issues (bsc#1092100).

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

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

  - procps-ng before version 3.3.15 is vulnerable to a local privilege escalation in top. If a user runs top     with HOME unset in an attacker-controlled directory, the attacker could achieve privilege escalation by     exploiting one of several vulnerabilities in the config_file() function. (CVE-2018-1122)

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

The version of AOS installed on the remote host is prior to 5.16. It is, therefore, affected by multiple vulnerabilities as referenced in the NXSA-AOS-5.16 advisory.

  - Gnome Pango 1.42 and later is affected by: Buffer Overflow. The impact is: The heap based buffer overflow     can be used to get code execution. The component is: function name: pango_log2vis_get_embedding_levels,     assignment of nchars and the loop condition. The attack vector is: Bug can be used when application pass     invalid utf-8 strings to functions like pango_itemize. (CVE-2019-1010238)

  - curl before version 7.61.1 is vulnerable to a buffer overrun in the NTLM authentication code. The internal     function Curl_ntlm_core_mk_nt_hash multiplies the length of the password by two (SUM) to figure out how     large temporary storage area to allocate from the heap. The length value is then subsequently used to     iterate over the password and generate output into the allocated storage buffer. On systems with a 32 bit     size_t, the math to calculate SUM triggers an integer overflow when the password length exceeds 2GB (2^31     bytes). This integer overflow usually causes a very small buffer to actually get allocated instead of the     intended very huge one, making the use of that buffer end up in a heap buffer overflow. (This bug is     almost identical to CVE-2017-8816.) (CVE-2018-14618)

  - An issue was discovered in XListExtensions in ListExt.c in libX11 through 1.6.5. A malicious server can     send a reply in which the first string overflows, causing a variable to be set to NULL that will be freed     later on, leading to DoS (segmentation fault). (CVE-2018-14598)

  - An issue was discovered in libX11 through 1.6.5. The function XListExtensions in ListExt.c is vulnerable     to an off-by-one error caused by malicious server responses, leading to DoS or possibly unspecified other     impact. (CVE-2018-14599)

  - An issue was discovered in libX11 through 1.6.5. The function XListExtensions in ListExt.c interprets a     variable as signed instead of unsigned, resulting in an out-of-bounds write (of up to 128 bytes), leading     to DoS or remote code execution. (CVE-2018-14600)

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

The version of AOS installed on the remote host is prior to 5.11.2. It is, therefore, affected by multiple vulnerabilities as referenced in the NXSA-AOS-5.11.2 advisory.

The component is: function name: pango_log2vis_get_embedding_levels,     assignment of nchars and the loop condition. The attack vector is: Bug can be used when application pass     invalid utf-8 strings to functions like pango_itemize. (CVE-2019-1010238)
