NewStart CGSL MAIN 6.06 : keepalived Vulnerability (NS-SA-2023-0097)

medium Nessus Plugin ID 187354

Synopsis

The remote NewStart CGSL host is affected by a vulnerability.

Description

The remote NewStart CGSL host, running version MAIN 6.06, has keepalived packages installed that are affected by a vulnerability:

 - In Keepalived through 2.2.4, the D-Bus policy does not sufficiently restrict the message destination, allowing any user to inspect and manipulate any property. This leads to access-control bypass in some situations in which an unrelated D-Bus system service has a settable (writable) property (CVE-2021-44225)

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

Solution

Upgrade the vulnerable CGSL keepalived packages. Note that updated packages may not be available yet. Please contact ZTE for more information.
