Synopsis

The remote CentOS Linux host is missing one or more security updates.

Description

The remote CentOS Linux 7 host has packages installed that are affected by multiple vulnerabilities as referenced in the RHSA-2020:1050 advisory.

 - In macOS High Sierra before 10.13.5, an issue existed in CUPS. This issue was addressed with improved access restrictions. (CVE-2018-4180, CVE-2018-4181)

 - The session cookie generated by the CUPS web interface was easy to guess on Linux, allowing unauthorized scripted access to the web interface when the web interface is enabled. This issue affected versions prior to v2.2.10. (CVE-2018-4300)

 - Rejected reason: DO NOT USE THIS CANDIDATE NUMBER. ConsultIDs: CVE-2018-4300. Reason: This candidate is a duplicate of CVE-2018-4300. Notes: All CVE users should reference CVE-2018-4300 instead of this candidate.
 All references and descriptions in this candidate have been removed to prevent accidental usage (CVE-2018-4700)

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