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

  • A command injection flaw within the Emacs ‘enriched mode’ handling has been discovered. By tricking an unsuspecting user into opening a specially crafted file using Emacs, a remote attacker could exploit this flaw to execute arbitrary commands with the privileges of the Emacs user. (CVE-2017-14482)

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.
