The remote host is missing an update for the Huawei EulerOS 'util-linux' package(s) announced via the EulerOS-SA-2016-1068 advisory. It was found that util-linux's libblkid library did not properly handle Extended Boot Record (EBR) partitions when reading MS-DOS partition tables. An attacker with physical USB access to a protected machine could insert a storage device with a specially crafted partition table that could trigger an infinite loop in systemd-udevd, resulting in a denial of service on that machine. Please install the updated package(s)
