Security Bulletin
This security bulletin contains information about 2 vulnerabilities.
1) Buffer overflow
EUVDB-ID: #VU69196
Risk: Medium
CVSSv4.0: 4 [CVSS:4.0/AV:L/AC:L/AT:P/PR:N/UI:A/VC:H/VI:H/VA:H/SC:N/SI:N/SA:N/E:U/U:Green]
CVE-ID: CVE-2022-39377
CWE-ID:
CWE-119 - Memory corruption
Exploit availability: No
DescriptionThe vulnerability allows a remote attacker to execute arbitrary code on the target system.
The vulnerability exists due to a boundary error within the allocate_structures() function in sa_common.c . A remote attacker can trick the victim into running a malicious application on system with a vulnerable version of sysstat, trigger memory corruption and execute arbitrary code on the target system.
Successful exploitation of this vulnerability may result in complete compromise of vulnerable system.
MitigationUpdate the affected package sysstat to the latest version.
