Inconsistent interpretation of HTTP requests ('HTTP Request/Response Smuggling') issue exists in HAProxy. If this vulnerability is exploited, a remote attacker may access a path that is restricted by ACL (Access Control List) set on the product. As a result, the attacker may obtain sensitive information.

An update of the haproxy package has been released.

According to the versions of the haproxy package installed, the EulerOS installation on the remote host is affected by the following vulnerabilities :

    Inconsistent interpretation of HTTP requests ('HTTP Request/Response Smuggling') issue exists in HAProxy.
    If this vulnerability is exploited,  a remote attacker may access a path that is restricted by ACL (Access     Control List) set on the product. As a result, the attacker may obtain sensitive     information.(CVE-2024-53008)

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

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

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