"The version of Tencent Linux installed on the remote TencentOS Server 3 host is prior to tested version. It is,
therefore, affected by multiple vulnerabilities as referenced in the TSSA-2022:0257 advisory.

    Package updates are available for TencentOS Server 3 that fix the following vulnerabilities:

      CVE-2022-25308:
      A stack-based buffer overflow flaw was found in the Fribidi package. This flaw allows an attacker to
    pass a specially crafted file to the Fribidi application, which leads to a possible memory leak or a
    denial of service.

      CVE-2022-25309:
      A heap-based buffer overflow flaw was found in the Fribidi package and affects the
    fribidi_cap_rtl_to_unicode() function of the fribidi-char-sets-cap-rtl.c file. This flaw allows an
    attacker to pass a specially crafted file to the Fribidi application with the '--caprtl' option, leading
    to a crash and causing a denial of service.

      CVE-2022-25310:
      A segmentation fault (SEGV) flaw was found in the Fribidi package and affects the
    fribidi_remove_bidi_marks() function of the lib/fribidi.c file. This flaw allows an attacker to pass a
    specially crafted file to Fribidi, leading to a crash and causing a denial of service.

      CVE-2019-18397:
      A buffer overflow in the fribidi_get_par_embedding_levels_ex() function in lib/fribidi-bidi.c of GNU
    FriBidi through 1.0.7 allows an attacker to cause a denial of service or possibly execute arbitrary code
    by delivering crafted text content to a user, when this content is then rendered by an application that
    uses FriBidi for text layout calculations. Examples include any GNOME or GTK+ based application that uses
    Pango for text layout, as this internally uses FriBidi for bidirectional text layout. For example, the
    attacker can construct a crafted text file to be opened in GEdit, or a crafted IRC message to be viewed in
    HexChat.

Tenable has extracted the preceding description block directly from the Tencent Linux security advisory.

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