Security Bulletin
This security bulletin contains information about 3 vulnerabilities.
EUVDB-ID: #VU17336
Risk: High
CVSSv4.0: 8.9 [CVSS:4.0/AV:N/AC:L/AT:N/PR:N/UI:N/VC:H/VI:H/VA:H/SC:N/SI:N/SA:N/E:P/U:Amber]
CVE-ID: CVE-2019-1000018
CWE-ID:
CWE-78 - Improper Neutralization of Special Elements used in an OS Command ('OS Command Injection')
Exploit availability: No
DescriptionThe vulnerability allows a remote attacker to execute arbitrary shell commands on the target system.
The vulnerability exists due to improper validation in the scp support. A remote unauthenticated attacker can perform only scp, sftp, cvs, svnserve (Subversion), rdist and/or rsync operations and execute arbitrary OS commands on the target system.
Successful exploitation of this vulnerability may result in complete compromise of vulnerable system.
MitigationUpdate the affected packages.

EUVDB-ID: #VU17363
Risk: High
CVSSv4.0: 8.1 [CVSS:4.0/AV:N/AC:L/AT:N/PR:N/UI:N/VC:H/VI:H/VA:H/SC:N/SI:N/SA:N/E:U/U:Amber]
CVE-ID: CVE-2019-3463
CWE-ID:
CWE-78 - Improper Neutralization of Special Elements used in an OS Command ('OS Command Injection')
Exploit availability: No
DescriptionThe vulnerability allows a remote attacker to execute arbitrary shell commands on the target system.
The vulnerability exists due to improper validation in the rsync support. A remote unauthenticated attacker can bypass the rsync support and execute arbitrary OS commands on the target system and perform only scp, sftp, cvs, svnserve (Subversion), rdist and/or rsync operations.
Successful exploitation of this vulnerability may result in complete compromise of vulnerable system.
MitigationUpdate the affected packages.
