high Nessus Plugin ID 171965

Language:

Synopsis

The remote Ubuntu host is missing one or more security updates.

Description

The remote Ubuntu 18.04 LTS / 20.04 LTS / 22.04 LTS host has packages installed that are affected by multiple vulnerabilities as referenced in the USN-5902-1 advisory.

 It was discovered that PHP incorrectly handled certain invalid Blowfish password hashes. An invalid password hash could possibly allow applications to accept any password as valid, contrary to expectations.
 (CVE-2023-0567)

 It was discovered that PHP incorrectly handled resolving long paths. A remote attacker could possibly use this issue to obtain or modify sensitive information. (CVE-2023-0568)

 It was discovered that PHP incorrectly handled a large number of parts in HTTP form uploads. A remote attacker could possibly use this issue to cause PHP to consume resources, leading to a denial of service.
 (CVE-2023-0662)

Tenable has extracted the preceding description block directly from the Ubuntu 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
