CBL Mariner 2.0 Security Update: mysql / rust / cmake / curl / tensorflow (CVE-2023-27538)

medium Nessus Plugin ID 174544

Synopsis

The remote CBL Mariner host is missing one or more security updates.

Description

The version of mysql / rust / cmake / curl / tensorflow installed on the remote CBL Mariner 2.0 host is prior to tested version. It is, therefore, affected by a vulnerability as referenced in the CVE-2023-27538 advisory.

 - An authentication bypass vulnerability exists in libcurl prior to v8.0.0 where it reuses a previously established SSH connection despite the fact that an SSH option was modified, which should have prevented reuse. libcurl maintains a pool of previously used connections to reuse them for subsequent transfers if the configurations match. However, two SSH settings were omitted from the configuration check, allowing them to match easily, potentially leading to the reuse of an inappropriate connection. (CVE-2023-27538)

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

Solution

Update the affected packages.
