* python-aiohttp: HTTP request smuggling via llhttp HTTP request parser (CVE-2023-37276)
* python-django: Potential denial of service vulnerability in ``django.utils.encoding.uri_to_iri()`` (CVE-2023-41164)
* python-django: Denial-of-service possibility in django.utils.text.Truncator (CVE-2023-43665)
* python-aiohttp: numerous issues in HTTP parser with header parsing (CVE-2023-47627)
* aiohttp: HTTP request modification (CVE-2023-49081)
* python-cryptography: NULL-dereference when loading PKCS7 certificates (CVE-2023-49083)
* jinja2: HTML attribute injection when passing user input as keys to xmlattr filter (CVE-2024-22195)

This RHUI update fixes the following bugs:
* The rhui-installer failed on RHEL 8.10 Beta due to the use of distutils. This has been addressed by updating to a newer version of ansible-collection-community-crypto which does not use the distutils.
This RHUI update introduces the following enhancements:
* A native Ansible module is now used to update the packages on the RHUA server when the RHUI installer is run for the first time or rerun at any time. This update can be prevented by using the --ignore-newer- rhel-packages flag on the rhui-installer command line.
* PulpCore has been updated to version 3.39.
Tenable has extracted the preceding description block directly from the Red Hat Enterprise Linux security advisory.
Note that Nessus has not tested for these issues but has instead relied only on the application's self-reported version number.
