The remote CentOS Linux 7 host has packages installed that are affected by a vulnerability as referenced in the RHSA-2023:6885 advisory.

  - An issue was discovered in Python before 3.8.18, 3.9.x before 3.9.18, 3.10.x before 3.10.13, and 3.11.x     before 3.11.5. It primarily affects servers (such as HTTP servers) that use TLS client authentication. If     a TLS server-side socket is created, receives data into the socket buffer, and then is closed quickly,     there is a brief window where the SSLSocket instance will detect the socket as not connected and won't     initiate a handshake, but buffered data will still be readable from the socket buffer. This data will not     be authenticated if the server-side TLS peer is expecting client certificate authentication, and is     indistinguishable from valid TLS stream data. Data is limited in size to the amount that will fit in the     buffer. (The TLS connection cannot directly be used for data exfiltration because the vulnerable code path     requires that the connection be closed on initialization of the SSLSocket.) (CVE-2023-40217)

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

The version of AHV installed on the remote host is prior to 20220304.480. It is, therefore, affected by multiple vulnerabilities as referenced in the NXSA-AHV-20220304.480 advisory.

  - An issue in Zen 2 CPUs, under specific microarchitectural circumstances, may allow an attacker to     potentially access sensitive information. (CVE-2023-20593)

  - An issue was discovered in Python before 3.8.18, 3.9.x before 3.9.18, 3.10.x before 3.10.13, and 3.11.x     before 3.11.5. It primarily affects servers (such as HTTP servers) that use TLS client authentication. If     a TLS server-side socket is created, receives data into the socket buffer, and then is closed quickly,     there is a brief window where the SSLSocket instance will detect the socket as not connected and won't     initiate a handshake, but buffered data will still be readable from the socket buffer. This data will not     be authenticated if the server-side TLS peer is expecting client certificate authentication, and is     indistinguishable from valid TLS stream data. Data is limited in size to the amount that will fit in the     buffer. (The TLS connection cannot directly be used for data exfiltration because the vulnerable code path     requires that the connection be closed on initialization of the SSLSocket.) (CVE-2023-40217)

  - A use after free vulnerability exists in curl <7.87.0. Curl can be asked to *tunnel* virtually all     protocols it supports through an HTTP proxy. HTTP proxies can (and often do) deny such tunnel operations.
    When getting denied to tunnel the specific protocols SMB or TELNET, curl would use a heap-allocated struct     after it had been freed, in its transfer shutdown code path. (CVE-2022-43552)

  - A side channel vulnerability on some of the AMD CPUs may allow an attacker to influence the return address     prediction. This may result in speculative execution at an attacker-controlled address, potentially     leading to information disclosure. (CVE-2023-20569)

  - The code that processes control channel messages sent to `named` calls certain functions recursively     during packet parsing. Recursion depth is only limited by the maximum accepted packet size; depending on     the environment, this may cause the packet-parsing code to run out of available stack memory, causing     `named` to terminate unexpectedly. Since each incoming control channel message is fully parsed before its     contents are authenticated, exploiting this flaw does not require the attacker to hold a valid RNDC key;
    only network access to the control channel's configured TCP port is necessary. This issue affects BIND 9     versions 9.2.0 through 9.16.43, 9.18.0 through 9.18.18, 9.19.0 through 9.19.16, 9.9.3-S1 through     9.16.43-S1, and 9.18.0-S1 through 9.18.18-S1. (CVE-2023-3341)

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

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

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

The remote NewStart CGSL host, running version MAIN 6.06 (SP), has python3 packages installed that are affected by multiple vulnerabilities:

  - Python 3.x through 3.10 has an open redirection vulnerability in lib/http/server.py due to no protection     against multiple (/) at the beginning of URI path which may leads to information disclosure. NOTE: this is     disputed by a third party because the http.server.html documentation page states Warning: http.server is     not recommended for production. It only implements basic security checks. (CVE-2021-28861)

  - A flaw was found in python. In algorithms with quadratic time complexity using non-binary bases, when     using int(text), a system could take 50ms to parse an int string with 100,000 digits and 5s for     1,000,000 digits (float, decimal, int.from_bytes(), and int() for binary bases 2, 4, 8, 16, and 32 are not     affected). The highest threat from this vulnerability is to system availability. (CVE-2020-10735)

  - An issue was discovered in Python before 3.11.1. An unnecessary quadratic algorithm exists in one path     when processing some inputs to the IDNA (RFC 3490) decoder, such that a crafted, unreasonably long name     being presented to the decoder could lead to a CPU denial of service. Hostnames are often supplied by     remote servers that could be controlled by a malicious actor; in such a scenario, they could trigger     excessive CPU consumption on the client attempting to make use of an attacker-supplied supposed hostname.
    For example, the attack payload could be placed in the Location header of an HTTP response with status     code 302. A fix is planned in 3.11.1, 3.10.9, 3.9.16, 3.8.16, and 3.7.16. (CVE-2022-45061)

  - A use-after-free exists in Python through 3.9 via heappushpop in heapq. (CVE-2022-48560)

  - read_ints in plistlib.py in Python through 3.9.1 is vulnerable to a potential DoS attack via CPU and RAM     exhaustion when processing malformed Apple Property List files in binary format. (CVE-2022-48564)

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