Synopsis

Amazon Corretto is affected by multiple vulnerabilities.

Description

The version of Amazon Corretto installed on the remote host is prior to 17 < 17.0.3.6.1. It is, therefore, affected by multiple vulnerabilities as referenced in the corretto-17-2022-Apr-17 advisory.

- zlib before 1.2.12 allows memory corruption when deflating (i.e., when compressing) if the input has many distant matches. (CVE-2018-25032)

- xml/jaxp (CVE-2022-21426)

- core-libs/java.lang (CVE-2022-21434)

- core-libs/javax.naming (CVE-2022-21496)

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

Solution
