The remote Ubuntu 18.04 LTS / 20.04 LTS / 21.10 / 22.04 LTS host has packages installed that are affected by multiple vulnerabilities as referenced in the USN-5476-1 advisory.

  • Liblouis through 3.21.0 has a buffer overflow in compilePassOpcode in compileTranslationTable.c (called, indirectly, by tools/lou_checktable.c). (CVE-2022-26981)

  • Liblouis 3.21.0 has an out-of-bounds write in compileRule in compileTranslationTable.c, as demonstrated by lou_trace. (CVE-2022-31783)

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