Rejected reason: Duplicate of CVE-2024-5629.

The Linux/Unix host has one or more packages installed that are impacted by a vulnerability without a vendor supplied patch available.

  - Rejected reason: Duplicate of CVE-2024-5629. (CVE-2024-21506)

Note that Nessus relies on the presence of the package as reported by the vendor.

The remote SUSE Linux SLES15 / openSUSE 15 host has a package installed that is affected by a vulnerability as referenced in the SUSE-SU-2024:1571-2 advisory.

    - CVE-2024-21506: Fixed out-of-bounds read in the BSON module (bsc#1222492)

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

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 ALAS2023-2024-614 advisory.

    Versions of the package pymongo before 4.6.3 are vulnerable to Out-of-bounds Read in the bson module.
    Using the crafted payload the attacker could force the parser to deserialize unmanaged memory. The parser     tries to interpret bytes next to buffer and throws an exception with string. If the following bytes are     not printable UTF-8 the parser throws an exception with a single byte. (CVE-2024-21506)

    An out-of-bounds read in the 'bson' module of PyMongo 4.6.2 or earlier allows deserialization of malformed     BSON provided by a Server to raise an exception which may contain arbitrary application memory.
    (CVE-2024-5629)
