Oracle Linux: CVE-2019-16167: ELSA-2020-4638: sysstat security update (LOW)
Description
sysstat before 12.1.6 has memory corruption due to an Integer Overflow in remap_struct() in sa_common.c. An integer overflow vulnerability was found in sysstat in the way the `sadf` command processes the contents of data files created by the `sar` command. A local attacker could exploit this flaw by creating a specially crafted file with malformed data that, when loaded by a victim, causes the application to crash.
