Description:Summary:
The remote host is missing an update for the Huawei EulerOS 'libevent' package(s) announced via the EulerOS-SA-2019-2515 advisory.

Vulnerability Insight:
Multiple integer overflows in the evbuffer API in Libevent 1.4.x before 1.4.15, 2.0.x before 2.0.22, and 2.1.x before 2.1.5-beta allow context-dependent attackers to cause a denial of service or possibly have other unspecified impact via 'insanely large inputs' to the (1) evbuffer_add, (2) evbuffer_expand, or (3) bufferevent_write function, which triggers a heap-based buffer overflow or an infinite loop. NOTE: this identifier has been SPLIT per ADT3 due to different affected versions. See CVE-2015-6525 for the functions that are only affected in 2.0 and later.(CVE-2014-6272)
