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

  • In elfutils 0.183, an infinite loop was found in the function handle_symtab in readelf.c .Which allows attackers to cause a denial of service (infinite loop) via crafted file. (CVE-2021-33294)

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.
