The remote Redhat Enterprise Linux 6 host has one or more packages installed that are affected by multiple vulnerabilities that have been acknowledged by the vendor but will not be patched.

  • spice-vdagent: Improper validation of xfers->save_dir in vdagent_file_xfers_data() (CVE-2017-15108)

  • spice-vdagent: UNIX domain socket peer PID retrieved via SO_PEERCRED is subject to race condition (CVE-2020-25653)

  • A flaw was found in the way the spice-vdagentd daemon handled file transfers from the host system to the virtual machine. Any unprivileged local guest user with access to the UNIX domain socket path /run/spice- vdagentd/spice-vdagent-sock could use this flaw to perform a memory denial of service for spice-vdagentd or even other processes in the VM system. The highest threat from this vulnerability is to system availability. This flaw affects spice-vdagent versions 0.20 and previous versions. (CVE-2020-25650)

  • A flaw was found in the SPICE file transfer protocol. File data from the host system can end up in full or in parts in the client connection of an illegitimate local user in the VM system. Active file transfers from other users could also be interrupted, resulting in a denial of service. The highest threat from this vulnerability is to data confidentiality as well as system availability. This flaw affects spice-vdagent versions 0.20 and prior. (CVE-2020-25651)

  • A flaw was found in the spice-vdagentd daemon, where it did not properly handle client connections that can be established via the UNIX domain socket in /run/spice-vdagentd/spice-vdagent-sock. Any unprivileged local guest user could use this flaw to prevent legitimate agents from connecting to the spice-vdagentd daemon, resulting in a denial of service. The highest threat from this vulnerability is to system availability. This flaw affects spice-vdagent versions 0.20 and prior. (CVE-2020-25652)

Note that Nessus has not tested for these issues but has instead relied on the package manager’s report that the package is installed.
