In Dogtag PKI through 10.8.3, the pki.client.PKIConnection class did not enable python-requests certificate validation. Since the verify parameter was hard-coded in all request functions, it was not possible to override the setting. As a result, tools making use of this class, such as the pki-server command, may have been vulnerable to Person-in-the-Middle attacks in certain non-localhost use cases. This is fixed in 10.9.0-b1.

The remote Redhat Enterprise Linux 7 host has one or more packages installed that are affected by multiple vulnerabilities that have been acknowledged by the vendor but will not be patched.

  - bootstrap: XSS in the tooltip or popover data-template attribute (CVE-2019-8331)

  - pki: Dogtag's python client does not validate certificates (CVE-2020-15720)

  - Multiple cross-site scripting (XSS) vulnerabilities in Red Hat Certificate System (RHCS) before 8.1.1 and     Dogtag Certificate System allow remote attackers to inject arbitrary web script or HTML via unspecified     parameters to the (1) System Agent or (2) End Entity pages. (CVE-2012-2662)

Note that Nessus has not tested for these issues but has instead relied on the package manager's report that the package is installed.

This plugin has been deprecated as it does not adhere to established standards for this style of check.

The remote Oracle Linux 8 host has packages installed that are affected by multiple vulnerabilities as referenced in the ELSA-2020-4847 advisory.

  - In Bootstrap before 4.1.2, XSS is possible in the collapse data-parent attribute. (CVE-2018-14040)

  - In Bootstrap before 4.1.2, XSS is possible in the data-container property of tooltip. (CVE-2018-14042)

  - jQuery before 3.0.0 is vulnerable to Cross-site Scripting (XSS) attacks when a cross-domain Ajax request     is performed without the dataType option, causing text/javascript responses to be executed.
    (CVE-2015-9251)

  - In Bootstrap 3.x before 3.4.0 and 4.x-beta before 4.0.0-beta.2, XSS is possible in the data-target     attribute, a different vulnerability than CVE-2018-14041. (CVE-2016-10735)

  - In Bootstrap before 3.4.1 and 4.3.x before 4.3.1, XSS is possible in the tooltip or popover data-template     attribute. (CVE-2019-8331)

  - In jQuery versions greater than or equal to 1.2 and before 3.5.0, passing HTML from untrusted sources -     even after sanitizing it - to one of jQuery's DOM manipulation methods (i.e. .html(), .append(), and     others) may execute untrusted code. This problem is patched in jQuery 3.5.0. (CVE-2020-11022)

  - jQuery before 3.4.0, as used in Drupal, Backdrop CMS, and other products, mishandles jQuery.extend(true,     {}, ...) because of Object.prototype pollution. If an unsanitized source object contained an enumerable
    __proto__ property, it could extend the native Object.prototype. (CVE-2019-11358)

  - A Reflected Cross Site Scripting flaw was found in all pki-core 10.x.x versions module from the pki-core     server due to the CA Agent Service not properly sanitizing the certificate request page. An attacker could     inject a specially crafted value that will be executed on the victim's browser. (CVE-2019-10146)

  - A vulnerability was found in all pki-core 10.x.x versions, where the Key Recovery Authority (KRA) Agent     Service did not properly sanitize recovery request search page, enabling a Reflected Cross Site Scripting     (XSS) vulnerability. An attacker could trick an authenticated victim into executing specially crafted     Javascript code. (CVE-2019-10179)

  - A Reflected Cross Site Scripting vulnerability was found in all pki-core 10.x.x versions, where the pki-ca     module from the pki-core server. This flaw is caused by missing sanitization of the GET URL parameters. An     attacker could abuse this flaw to trick an authenticated user into clicking a specially crafted link which     can execute arbitrary code when viewed in a browser. (CVE-2019-10221)

  - A flaw was found in the Key Recovery Authority (KRA) Agent Service in pki-core 10.10.5 where it did not     properly sanitize the recovery ID during a key recovery request, enabling a reflected cross-site scripting     (XSS) vulnerability. An attacker could trick an authenticated victim into executing specially crafted     Javascript code. (CVE-2020-1721)

  - In jQuery versions greater than or equal to 1.0.3 and before 3.5.0, passing HTML containing <option>     elements from untrusted sources - even after sanitizing it - to one of jQuery's DOM manipulation methods     (i.e. .html(), .append(), and others) may execute untrusted code. This problem is patched in jQuery 3.5.0.
    (CVE-2020-11023)

  - In Dogtag PKI through 10.8.3, the pki.client.PKIConnection class did not enable python-requests     certificate validation. Since the verify parameter was hard-coded in all request functions, it was not     possible to override the setting. As a result, tools making use of this class, such as the pki-server     command, may have been vulnerable to Person-in-the-Middle attacks in certain non-localhost use cases. This     is fixed in 10.9.0-b1. (CVE-2020-15720)
