SB2022021908 - openEuler update for cfitsio

Description

This security bulletin contains information about 2 secuirty vulnerabilities.

1) Stack-based buffer overflow (CVE-ID: CVE-2018-3849)

The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to execute arbitrary code on the target system.

The vulnerability exists due to a boundary error when processing the library can cause a stack-based buffer overflow overwriting arbitrary data. An attacker can deliver an FIT image to trigger this vulnerability and potentially gain code execution. A remote unauthenticated attacker can trigger stack-based buffer overflow and execute arbitrary code on the target system.

Successful exploitation of this vulnerability may result in complete compromise of vulnerable system.
