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

An off-by-one error flaw was found in the udevListInterfacesByStatus() function in libvirt when the number     of interfaces exceeds the size of the `names` array. This issue can be reproduced by sending specially     crafted data to the libvirt daemon, allowing an unprivileged client to perform a denial of service attack     by causing the libvirt daemon to crash.(CVE-2024-1441)

A NULL pointer dereference flaw was found in the udevConnectListAllInterfaces() function in libvirt. This     issue can occur when detaching a host interface while at the same time collecting the list of interfaces     via virConnectListAllInterfaces API. This flaw could be used to perform a denial of service attack by     causing the libvirt daemon to crash.(CVE-2024-2496)

While the C API entry points will validate non-negative lengths for various parameters, the RPC server de-     serialization code will need to allocate memory for arrays before entering the C API. These allocations     will thus happen before the non-negative length check is performed.  Passing a negative length to the     g_new0 function will usually result in a crash due to the negative length being treated as a huge positive     number.  This was found and diagnosed by ALT Linux Team with AFLplusplus.(CVE-2024-2494)

A race condition leading to a stack use-after-free flaw was found in libvirt. Due to a bad assumption in     the virNetClientIOEventLoop() method, the data pointer to a stack-allocated virNetClientIOEventData     structure ended up being used in the virNetClientIOEventFD callback while the data pointer s stack frame     was concurrently being freed when returning from virNetClientIOEventLoop(). The virtproxyd daemon can be     used to trigger requests. If libvirt is configured with fine-grained access control, this issue, in     theory, allows a user to escape their otherwise limited access. This flaw allows a local, unprivileged     user to access virtproxyd without authenticating. Remote users would need to authenticate before they     could access it.(CVE-2024-4418)

Tenable has extracted the preceding description block directly from the EulerOS Virtualization libvirt security advisory.

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