Synopsis
The remote Amazon Linux 2 host is missing a security update.Description
The version of php installed on the remote host is prior to 8.0.24-1. It is, therefore, affected by multiple vulnerabilities as referenced in the ALAS2PHP8.0-2024-010 advisory.- In PHP versions before 7.4.31, 8.0.24 and 8.1.11, the phar uncompressor code would recursively uncompress quines gzip files, resulting in an infinite loop. (CVE-2022-31628)
- In PHP versions before 7.4.31, 8.0.24 and 8.1.11, the vulnerability enables network and same-site attackers to set a standard insecure cookie in the victim's browser which is treated as a `__Host-` or `__Secure-` cookie by PHP applications. (CVE-2022-31629)
- A vulnerability was found in PHP where setting the environment variable PHP_CLI_SERVER_WORKERS to a large value leads to a heap buffer overflow. (CVE-2022-4900)
Note that Nessus has not tested for these issues but has instead relied only on the application's self-reported version number.
