USN-7117-1 fixed vulnerabilities in needrestart. The update introduced a
regression in needrestart. This update fixes the problem for LXC
containers.

We apologize for the inconvenience.

Original advisory details:

Qualys discovered that needrestart passed unsanitized data to a library
(libmodule-scandeps-perl) which expects safe input. A local attacker could
possibly use this issue to execute arbitrary code as root.
(CVE-2024-11003)

Qualys discovered that the library libmodule-scandeps-perl incorrectly
parsed perl code. This could allow a local attacker to execute arbitrary
shell commands. (CVE-2024-10224)

Qualys discovered that needrestart incorrectly used the PYTHONPATH
environment variable to spawn a new Python interpreter. A local attacker
could possibly use this issue to execute arbitrary code as root.
(CVE-2024-48990)

Qualys discovered that needrestart incorrectly checked the path to the
Python interpreter. A local attacker could possibly use this issue to win
a race condition and execute arbitrary code as root. (CVE-2024-48991)

Qualys discovered that needrestart incorrectly used the RUBYLIB
environment variable to spawn a new Ruby interpreter. A local attacker
could possibly use this issue to execute arbitrary code as root.
(CVE-2024-48992)
