Test ID:1.3.6.1.4.1.25623.1.1.10.2021.0048
Category:Mageia Linux Local Security Checks
Title:Mageia: Security Advisory (MGASA-2021-0048)
Summary:The remote host is missing an update for the 'perl-DBI' package(s) announced via the MGASA-2021-0048 advisory.
Description:Summary:
The remote host is missing an update for the 'perl-DBI' package(s) announced via the MGASA-2021-0048 advisory.

Vulnerability Insight:
An issue was discovered in the DBI module before 1.643 for Perl. The
hv_fetch() documentation requires checking for NULL and the code does that.
But, shortly thereafter, it calls SvOK(profile), causing a NULL pointer
dereference. (CVE-2019-20919).

An untrusted pointer dereference flaw was found in Perl-DBI < 1.643. A local
attacker who is able to manipulate calls to dbd_db_login6_sv() could cause
memory corruption, affecting the service's availability. (CVE-2020-14392).

A buffer overflow was found in perl-DBI < 1.643 in DBI.xs. A local attacker
who is able to supply a string longer than 300 characters could cause an
out-of-bounds write, affecting the availability of the service or integrity
of data. (CVE-2020-14393).

Affected Software/OS:
'perl-DBI' package(s) on Mageia 7.

Solution:
Please install the updated package(s).
