Amazon Linux 2 : libvirt (ALAS-2018-1134)

util/virlog.c in libvirt does not properly determine the hostname on LXC container startup, which allows local guest OS users to bypass an intended container protection mechanism and execute arbitrary commands via a crafted NSS module.CVE-2018-6764 C Tenable Network Security, Inc. The descriptive...

Amazon Linux 2 : python3 (ALAS-2018-1132)

Python's elementtree C accelerator failed to initialise Expat's hash salt during initialization. This could make it easy to conduct denial of service attacks against Expat by contructing an XML document that would cause pathological hash collisions in Expat's internal data structures, consuming...

Low: curl

Issue Overview: curl is vulnerable to a buffer overrun in the NTLM authentication code. The internal function Curlntlmcoremknthash multiplies the length of the password by two SUM to figure out how large temporary storage area to allocate from the heap. The length value is then subsequently used ...

Medium: glibc

Issue Overview: A buffer overflow has been discovered in the GNU C Library aka glibc or libc6 in the mempcpyavx512novzeroupper function when particular conditions are met. An attacker could use this vulnerability to cause a denial of service or potentially execute code.CVE-2018-11237 Affected...

Amazon Linux AMI : golang (ALAS-2018-1130)

In Go before 1.10.6 and 1.11.x before 1.11.3, the 'go get' command is vulnerable to remote code execution when executed with the -u flag and the import path of a malicious Go package, or a package that imports it directly or indirectly. Specifically, it is only vulnerable in GOPATH mode, but not ...

Amazon Linux AMI : nginx (ALAS-2018-1125)

nginx before versions 1.15.6 and 1.14.1 has a vulnerability in the implementation of HTTP/2 that can allow for excessive memory consumption. This issue affects nginx compiled with the ngxhttpv2module not compiled by default if the 'http2' option of the 'listen' directive is used in a configuratio...

Amazon Linux AMI : httpd24 (ALAS-2018-1104)

In Apache HTTP Server 2.4.17 to 2.4.34, by sending continuous, large SETTINGS frames a client can occupy a connection, server thread and CPU time without any connection timeout coming to effect. This affects only HTTP/2 connections. A possible mitigation is to not enable the h2 protocol...

Amazon Linux 2 : gnutls (ALAS-2018-1120)

It was found that GnuTLS's implementation of HMAC-SHA-256 was vulnerable to Lucky Thirteen-style attack. A remote attacker could use this flaw to conduct distinguishing attacks and plain text recovery attacks via statistical analysis of timing data using crafted packets.CVE-2018-10844 It was foun...

Amazon Linux 2 : fuse (ALAS-2018-1123)

A vulnerability was discovered in fuse. When SELinux is active, fusermount is vulnerable to a restriction bypass. This allows non-root users to mount a FUSE file system with the 'allowother' mount option regardless of whether 'userallowother' is set in the fuse configuration. An attacker may use...

Amazon Linux 2 : wpa_supplicant (ALAS-2018-1122)

An issue was discovered in rsnsupp/wpa.c in wpasupplicant 2.0 through 2.6. Under certain conditions, the integrity of EAPOL-Key messages is not checked, leading to a decryption oracle. An attacker within range of the Access Point and client can abuse the vulnerability to recover sensitive...

Amazon Linux 2 : wget (ALAS-2018-1121)

A cookie injection flaw was found in wget. An attacker can create a malicious website which, when accessed, overrides cookies belonging to arbitrary domains.CVE-2018-0494 C Tenable Network Security, Inc. The descriptive text and package checks in this plugin were extracted from Amazon Linux 2...

Amazon Linux 2 : xerces-c (ALAS-2018-1124)

A stack exhaustion flaw was found in the way Xerces-C XML parser handled deeply nested DTDs. An attacker could potentially use this flaw to crash an application using Xerces-C by tricking it into processing specially crafted data.CVE-2016-4463 C Tenable Network Security, Inc. The descriptive text...

Amazon Linux AMI : postgresql96 (ALAS-2018-1119)

A vulnerability was found in libpq, the default PostgreSQL client library where libpq failed to properly reset its internal state between connections. If an affected version of libpq were used with 'host' or 'hostaddr' connection parameters from untrusted input, attackers could bypass client-side...

Amazon Linux AMI : ruby23 / ruby24 (ALAS-2018-1113)

An issue was discovered in the OpenSSL library in Ruby before 2.3.8, 2.4.x before 2.4.5, 2.5.x before 2.5.2, and 2.6.x before 2.6.0-preview3. When two OpenSSL::X509::Name objects are compared using ==, depending on the ordering, non-equal objects may return true. When the first argument is one...
