Synopsis

The remote Red Hat host is missing one or more security updates for python27:2.7.

Description

The remote Redhat Enterprise Linux 8 host has packages installed that are affected by multiple vulnerabilities as referenced in the RHSA-2022:1821 advisory.

- python: urllib: Regular expression DoS in AbstractBasicAuthHandler (CVE-2021-3733)

- python: urllib: HTTP client possible infinite loop on a 100 Continue response (CVE-2021-3737)

- python: ftplib should not use the host from the PASV response (CVE-2021-4189)

- python-lxml: HTML Cleaner allows crafted and SVG embedded scripts to pass through (CVE-2021-43818)

- python: urllib.parse does not sanitize URLs containing ASCII newline and tabs (CVE-2022-0391)

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 python27:2.7 package based on the guidance in RHSA-2022:1821.
