osbuild-composer < 94 Race Condition

medium Nessus Plugin ID 192468

Synopsis

The version of osbuild-composer installed on the remote host may be vulnerable to a man-in-the middle attack due to a race condition.

Description

The version of osbuild-composer installed on the remote host is prior to 94. It may, therefore, be affected by a race condition. A condition can be triggered that disables GPG verification for package repositories, which can expose the build phase to a Man-in-the-Middle attack, allowing untrusted code to be installed into an image being built.

Note that Nessus has not tested for these issues but has instead relied only on the application's self-reported version

Solution

Upgrade to osbuild-composer to version 94 or later.
