A vulnerability was found in Undertow. This issue requires enabling the learning-push handler in the server's config, which is disabled by default, leaving the maxAge config in the handler unconfigured. The default is -1, which makes the handler vulnerable. If someone overwrites that config, the server is not subject to the attack. The attacker needs to be able to reach the server with a normal HTTP request.

The remote Redhat Enterprise Linux 6 host has one or more packages installed that are affected by a vulnerability that has been acknowledged by the vendor but will not be patched.

  - undertow: LearningPushHandler can lead to remote memory DoS attacks (CVE-2024-3653)

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

The remote Redhat Enterprise Linux 9 host has packages installed that are affected by multiple vulnerabilities as referenced in the RHSA-2024:5145 advisory.
