Synopsis

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

Description

The remote Debian 11 / 12 host has packages installed that are affected by multiple vulnerabilities as referenced in the dsa-5549 advisory.

Several vulnerabilities were discovered in Apache Traffic Server, a reverse and forward proxy server, which could result in denial of service or information disclosure. For the oldstable distribution (bullseye), these problems have been fixed in version 8.1.9+ds-1~deb11u1. For the stable distribution (bookworm), these problems have been fixed in version 9.2.3+ds-1+deb12u1. We recommend that you upgrade your trafficserver packages. For the detailed security status of trafficserver please refer to its security tracker page at: https://security-tracker.debian.org/tracker/trafficserver

Tenable has extracted the preceding description block directly from the Debian 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

Upgrade the trafficserver packages.

For the stable distribution (bookworm), these problems have been fixed in version 9.2.3+ds-1+deb12u1.
