The remote Oracle Linux 6 host has packages installed that are affected by multiple vulnerabilities as referenced in the ELSA-2011-0413 advisory.

    - Avoid too much stack use in fnmatch (#681054, CVE-2011-1071)
    - Properly quote output of locale (#625893, CVE-2011-1095)

Tenable has extracted the preceding description block directly from the Oracle Linux security advisory.

Note that Nessus has not tested for these issues but has instead relied only on the application's self-reported version number.

a. Service Console update for DHCP

    The DHCP client daemon, dhclient, does not properly sanatize     certain options in DHCP server replies. An attacker could send a     specially crafted DHCP server reply, that is saved on     the client system and evaluated by a process that assumes the     option is trusted. This could lead to arbitrary code execution     with the privileges of the evaluating process.

    The Common Vulnerabilities and Exposures project (cve.mitre.org)     has assigned the name CVE-2011-0997 to this issue.

b. Service Console update for glibc

    This patch updates the glibc package for ESX service console to     glibc-2.5-58.7602.vmw. This fixes multiple security issues in     glibc, glibc-common and nscd including possible local privilege     escalation.
     The Common Vulnerabilities and Exposures project (cve.mitre.org)     has assigned the identifiers CVE-2010-0296, CVE-2011-0536,     CVE-2011-1095, CVE-2011-1071, CVE-2011-1658 and CVE-2011-1659 to     these issues.

The remote Redhat Enterprise Linux 6 host has packages installed that are affected by multiple vulnerabilities as referenced in the RHSA-2011:0413 advisory.

    The glibc packages contain the standard C libraries used by multiple     programs on the system. These packages contain the standard C and the     standard math libraries. Without these two libraries, a Linux system cannot     function properly.

    The fix for CVE-2010-3847 introduced a regression in the way the dynamic     loader expanded the $ORIGIN dynamic string token specified in the RPATH and     RUNPATH entries in the ELF library header. A local attacker could use this     flaw to escalate their privileges via a setuid or setgid program using     such a library. (CVE-2011-0536)

    It was discovered that the glibc fnmatch() function did not properly     restrict the use of alloca(). If the function was called on sufficiently     large inputs, it could cause an application using fnmatch() to crash or,     possibly, execute arbitrary code with the privileges of the application.
    (CVE-2011-1071)

    It was discovered that the locale command did not produce properly escaped     output as required by the POSIX specification. If an attacker were able to     set the locale environment variables in the environment of a script that     performed shell evaluation on the output of the locale command, and that     script were run with different privileges than the attacker's, it could     execute arbitrary code with the privileges of the script. (CVE-2011-1095)

    All users should upgrade to these updated packages, which contain     backported patches to correct these issues.

The remote Redhat Enterprise Linux 4 host has packages installed that are affected by multiple vulnerabilities as referenced in the RHSA-2012:0125 advisory.

  - glibc: __tzfile_read integer overflow to buffer overflow (CVE-2009-5029)

  - glibc: ldd unexpected code execution issue (CVE-2009-5064)

  - glibc: Improper encoding of names with certain special character in utilities for writing to mtab table     (CVE-2010-0296)

  - glibc: ld.so d_tag signedness error in elf_get_dynamic_info (CVE-2010-0830)

  - glibc: fnmatch() alloca()-based memory corruption flaw (CVE-2011-1071, CVE-2011-1659)

  - glibc: Suid mount helpers fail to anticipate RLIMIT_FSIZE (CVE-2011-1089)

  - glibc: insufficient quoting in the locale command output (CVE-2011-1095)

  - glibc: svc_run() produces high cpu usage when accept() fails with EMFILE error (CVE-2011-4609)
