Test ID: | 1.3.6.1.4.1.25623.1.1.12.2005.102.1 |
Category: | Ubuntu Local Security Checks |
Title: | Ubuntu: Security Advisory (USN-102-1) |
Summary: | The remote host is missing an update for the 'sharutils' package(s) announced via the USN-102-1 advisory. |
Description: | Summary: The remote host is missing an update for the 'sharutils' package(s) announced via the USN-102-1 advisory. Vulnerability Insight: Shaun Colley discovered a buffer overflow in 'shar' that was triggered by output files (specified with -o) with names longer than 49 characters. This could be exploited to run arbitrary attacker specified code on systems that automatically process uploaded files with shar. Ulf Harnhammar discovered that shar does not check the data length returned by the 'wc' command. However, it is believed that this cannot actually be exploited on real systems. Affected Software/OS: 'sharutils' package(s) on Ubuntu 4.10. Solution: Please install the updated package(s). CVSS Score: 5.0 CVSS Vector: AV:N/AC:L/Au:N/C:P/I:N/A:N |
