RHCOS 4 : OpenShift Container Platform 4.13.1 (RHSA-2023:3303)

high Nessus Plugin ID 189449

Synopsis

The remote Red Hat CoreOS host is missing a security update for OpenShift Container Platform 4.13.1.

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-2023:3303 advisory.

- Large handshake records may cause panics in crypto/tls. Both clients and servers may send large TLS handshake records which cause servers and clients, respectively, to panic when attempting to construct responses. This affects all TLS 1.3 clients, TLS 1.2 clients which explicitly enable session resumption (by setting Config.ClientSessionCache to a non-nil value), and TLS 1.3 servers which request client certificates (by setting Config.ClientAuth >= RequestClientCert). (CVE-2022-41724)

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 4.13.1 packages based on the guidance in RHSA-2023:3303.
