critical Nessus Plugin ID 122292

Synopsis

The remote Red Hat host is missing one or more security updates for Red Hat JBoss Core Services Apache HTTP Server 2.4.29.

Description

The remote Redhat Enterprise Linux 6 / 7 host has packages installed that are affected by multiple vulnerabilities as referenced in the RHSA-2019:0367 advisory.

Red Hat JBoss Core Services is a set of supplementary software for Red Hat JBoss middleware products. This software, such as Apache HTTP Server, is common to multiple JBoss middleware products, and is packaged under Red Hat JBoss Core Services to allow for faster distribution of updates, and for a more consistent update experience.

This release of Red Hat JBoss Core Services Apache HTTP Server 2.4.29 Service Pack 1 serves as an update to Red Hat JBoss Core Services Apache HTTP Server 2.4.29, and includes bug fixes for CVEs which are linked to in the References section.

Security Fixes:

* httpd: DoS for HTTP/2 connections by continuous SETTINGS (CVE-2018-11763)

* httpd: Weak Digest auth nonce generation in mod_auth_digest (CVE-2018-1312)

* httpd: Out of bound access after failure in reading the HTTP request (CVE-2018-1301)

* httpd: Use-after-free on HTTP/2 stream shutdown (CVE-2018-1302)

* httpd: <FilesMatch> bypass with a trailing newline in the file name (CVE-2017-15715)

* httpd: Out of bound write in mod_authnz_ldap when using too small Accept-Language values (CVE-2017-15710)

* httpd: Out of bounds read in mod_cache_socache can allow a remote attacker to cause a denial of service (CVE-2018-1303)

* httpd: Improper handling of headers in mod_session can allow a remote user to modify session data for CGI applications (CVE-2018-1283)

* httpd: mod_http2: too much time allocated to workers, possibly leading to DoS (CVE-2018-1333)

* mod_jk: connector path traversal due to mishandled HTTP requests in httpd (CVE-2018-11759)

* nghttp2: Null pointer dereference when too large ALTSVC frame is received (CVE-2018-1000168)

* openssl: Handling of crafted recursive ASN.1 structures can cause a stack overflow and resulting denial of service (CVE-2018-0739)

Details around each issue, including information about the CVE, severity of the issue, and the CVSS score, can be found on the CVE pages listed in the Reference section below.

Tenable has extracted the preceding description block directly from the Red Hat Enterprise Linux security advisory.

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

Solution

Update the RHEL Red Hat JBoss Core Services Apache HTTP Server 2.4.29 package based on the guidance in RHSA-2019:0367.
