Security Bulletin

This security bulletin contains information about 7 vulnerabilities.

1) Buffer overflow

EUVDB-ID: #VU69601

Risk: Low

CVSSv3.1: 3.8 [CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:R/S:U/C:N/I:N/A:L/E:U/RL:O/RC:C]

CVE-ID: CVE-2022-35014

CWE-ID: CWE-119 - Memory corruption

Exploit availability: No

Description

The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to perform a denial of service (DoS) attack.

The vulnerability exists due to a boundary error when processing archives. A remote attacker can create a specially crafted archive, trick the victim into opening it, trigger memory corruption and crash the application.

Mitigation

Update the affected package advancecomp to the latest version.

Vulnerable software versions

Ubuntu: 16.04 - 22.10

advancecomp (Ubuntu package): before Ubuntu Pro (Infra-only)
