Those using Snakeyaml to parse untrusted YAML files may be vulnerable to Denial of Service attacks (DOS). If the parser is running on user supplied input, an attacker may supply content that causes the parser to crash by stack overflow. This effect may support a denial of service attack.

    Security fix for CVE-2022-41854

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

The remote Redhat Enterprise Linux 9 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.

  - apache-commons-net: FTP client trusts the host from PASV response by default (CVE-2021-37533)

  - Those using Snakeyaml to parse untrusted YAML files may be vulnerable to Denial of Service attacks (DOS).
    If the parser is running on user supplied input, an attacker may supply content that causes the parser to     crash by stack overflow. This effect may support a denial of service attack. (CVE-2022-41854)

  - An infinite recursion is triggered in Jettison when constructing a JSONArray from a Collection that     contains a self-reference in one of its elements. This leads to a StackOverflowError exception being     thrown. (CVE-2023-1436)

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

The version of IBM Cognos Analytics installed on the remote host is prior to 11.1.7 FP8, 11.2.4 FP3, or 12.0.2. It is, therefore, affected by multiple vulnerabilities as referenced in the IBM Security Bulletin No. 7123154, including the following:

  - When deserializing untrusted or corrupted data, it is possible for a reader to consume memory beyond the   allowed constraints and thus lead to out of memory on the system. This issue affects Java applications using   Apache Avro Java SDK up to and including 1.11.2. Users should update to apache-avro version 1.11.3 which   addresses this issue. (CVE-2023-39410)

  - In order to decrypt SM2 encrypted data an application is expected to call the API function   EVP_PKEY_decrypt(). Typically an application will call this function twice. The first time, on entry, the   'out' parameter can be NULL and, on exit, the 'outlen' parameter is populated with the buffer size required   to hold the decrypted plaintext. The application can then allocate a sufficiently sized buffer and call   EVP_PKEY_decrypt() again, but this time passing a non-NULL value for the 'out' parameter. A bug in the   implementation of the SM2 decryption code means that the calculation of the buffer size required to hold the   plaintext returned by the first call to EVP_PKEY_decrypt() can be smaller than the actual size required by   the second call. This can lead to a buffer overflow when EVP_PKEY_decrypt() is called by the application a   second time with a buffer that is too small. A malicious attacker who is able present SM2 content for   decryption to an application could cause attacker chosen data to overflow the buffer by up to a maximum of   62 bytes altering the contents of other data held after the buffer, possibly changing application behaviour   or causing the application to crash. The location of the buffer is application dependent but is typically   heap allocated. Fixed in OpenSSL 1.1.1l (Affected 1.1.1-1.1.1k). (CVE-2021-3711)

  - SnakeYaml's Constructor() class does not restrict types which can be instantiated during deserialization.
  Deserializing yaml content provided by an attacker can lead to remote code execution. We recommend using   SnakeYaml's SafeConsturctor when parsing untrusted content to restrict deserialization. We recommend   upgrading to version 2.0 and beyond. (CVE-2022-1471)

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

It is, therefore, affected by multiple vulnerabilities as referenced in the ALAS2023-2023-375 advisory.

    Using snakeYAML to parse untrusted YAML files may be vulnerable to Denial of Service attacks (DOS). If the     parser is running on user supplied input, an attacker may supply content that causes the parser to crash     by stack-overflow. (CVE-2022-38752)
