high Nessus Plugin ID 177883

Language:

Synopsis

The remote FreeBSD host is missing one or more security-related updates.

Description

The version of FreeBSD installed on the remote host is prior to tested version. It is, therefore, affected by multiple vulnerabilities as referenced in the 95dad123-180e-11ee-86ba-080027eda32c advisory.

- guzzlehttp/psr7 is a PSR-7 HTTP message library implementation in PHP. Affected versions are subject to improper header parsing. An attacker could sneak in a newline (\n) into both the header names and values.
While the specification states that \r\n\r\n is used to terminate the header list, many servers in the wild will also accept \n\n. This is a follow-up to CVE-2022-24775 where the fix was incomplete. The issue has been patched in versions 1.9.1 and 2.4.5. There are no known workarounds for this vulnerability. Users are advised to upgrade. (CVE-2023-29197)

- An issue was discovered in MediaWiki before 1.35.11, 1.36.x through 1.38.x before 1.38.7, 1.39.x before 1.39.4, and 1.40.x before 1.40.1. It is possible to bypass the Bad image list (aka badFile) by using the thumb parameter (aka Manualthumb) of the File syntax. (CVE-2023-36674)

- An issue was discovered in MediaWiki before 1.35.11, 1.36.x through 1.38.x before 1.38.7, and 1.39.x before 1.39.4. BlockLogFormatter.php in BlockLogFormatter allows XSS in the partial blocks feature.
(CVE-2023-36675)

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 affected packages.
