RHCOS 4 : OpenShift Container Platform 4.10.61 (RHSA-2023:3362)

high Nessus Plugin ID 189446

Synopsis

The remote Red Hat CoreOS host is missing a security update for OpenShift Container Platform 4.10.61.

Description

The remote Red Hat Enterprise Linux CoreOS 4 host has a package installed that is affected by a vulnerability as referenced in the RHSA-2023:3362 advisory.

 - [Json-smart](https://netplex.github.io/json-smart/) is a performance focused, JSON processor lib. When reaching a [ or { character in the JSON input, the code parses an array or an object respectively. It was discovered that the code does not have any limit to the nesting of such arrays or objects. Since the parsing of nested arrays and objects is done recursively, nesting too many of them can cause a stack exhaustion (stack overflow) and crash the software. (CVE-2023-1370)

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 RHCOS OpenShift Container Platform 4.10.61 packages based on the guidance in RHSA-2023:3362.
