This problem can only be exploited if ez-ipupdate is running in daemon mode (most likely) with many but not all service types. last seen 2020-06-01 modified 2020-06-02 plugin id 15727 published 2004-11-17 reporter This script is Copyright (C) 2004-2019 Tenable Network Security, Inc. source https://www.tenable.com/plugins/nessus/15727 title Debian DSA-592-1 : ez-ipupdate - format string NASL family FreeBSD Local Security Checks NASL id FREEBSD_PKG_E69BA632326F11D9B5B7000854D03344.NASL description Data supplied by a remote server is used as the format string instead of as parameters in a syslog() call. This may lead to crashes or potential running of arbitrary code. It is only a problem when running in daemon mode (very common) and when using some service types. last seen 2020-06-01 modified 2020-06-02 plugin id 36790 published 2009-04-23 reporter This script is Copyright (C) 2009-2019 and is owned by Tenable, Inc. or an Affiliate thereof. source https://www.tenable.com/plugins/nessus/36790 title FreeBSD : ez-ipupdate -- format string vulnerability (e69ba632-326f-11d9-b5b7-000854d03344) NASL family Gentoo Local Security Checks NASL id GENTOO_GLSA-200411-20.NASL description The remote host is affected by the vulnerability described in GLSA-200411-20 (ez-ipupdate: Format string vulnerability) Ulf Harnhammar from the Debian Security Audit Project discovered a format string vulnerability in ez-ipupdate. Impact : An attacker could exploit this to execute arbitrary code with the permissions of the user running ez-ipupdate, which could be the root user. Workaround : There is no known workaround at this time. last seen 2020-06-01 modified 2020-06-02 plugin id 15695 published 2004-11-13 reporter This script is Copyright (C) 2004-2019 and is owned by Tenable, Inc. or an Affiliate thereof. source https://www.tenable.com/plugins/nessus/15695 title GLSA-200411-20 : ez-ipupdate: Format string vulnerability
