Test ID: | 1.3.6.1.4.1.25623.1.0.882514 |
Category: | CentOS Local Security Checks |
Title: | CentOS Update for ocaml CESA-2016:1296 centos7 |
Summary: | Check the version of ocaml |
Description: | Summary: Check the version of ocaml Vulnerability Insight: OCaml is a high-level, strongly-typed, functional, and object-oriented programming language from the ML family of languages. The ocaml packages contain two batch compilers (a fast bytecode compiler and an optimizing native-code compiler), an interactive top level system, parsing tools (Lex, Yacc, Camlp4), a replay debugger, a documentation generator, and a comprehensive library. Security Fix(es): * OCaml versions 4.02.3 and earlier have a runtime bug that, on 64-bit platforms, causes size arguments to internal memmove calls to be sign-extended from 32- to 64-bits before being passed to the memmove function. This leads to arguments between 2GiB and 4GiB being interpreted as larger than they are (specifically, a bit below 2^64), causing a buffer overflow. Further, arguments between 4GiB and 6GiB are interpreted as 4GiB smaller than they should be, causing a possible information leak. (CVE-2015-8869) Affected Software/OS: ocaml on CentOS 7 Solution: Please Install the Updated Packages. CVSS Score: 6.4 CVSS Vector: AV:N/AC:L/Au:N/C:P/I:N/A:P |
