Test ID:1.3.6.1.4.1.25623.1.1.10.2020.0314
Category:Mageia Linux Local Security Checks
Title:Mageia: Security Advisory (MGASA-2020-0314)
Summary:The remote host is missing an update for the 'glib-networking' package(s) announced via the MGASA-2020-0314 advisory.
Description:Summary:
The remote host is missing an update for the 'glib-networking' package(s) announced via the MGASA-2020-0314 advisory.

Vulnerability Insight:
The updated packages fix a security vulnerability:

In GNOME glib-networking through 2.64.2, the implementation of
GTlsClientConnection skips hostname verification of the server's
TLS certificate if the application fails to specify the expected
server identity. This is in contrast to its intended documented
behavior, to fail the certificate verification. Applications that
fail to provide the server identity, including Balsa before 2.5.11
and 2.6.x before 2.6.1, accept a TLS certificate if the certificate
is valid for any host. (CVE-2020-13645)

Affected Software/OS:
'glib-networking' package(s) on Mageia 7.

Solution:
Please install the updated package(s).

CVSS Score:
6.4
