Synopsis

The remote Red Hat host is missing one or more security updates.

Description

The remote Redhat Enterprise Linux 7 host has packages installed that are affected by multiple vulnerabilities as referenced in the RHSA-2019:1436 advisory.

HAProxy is a TCP/HTTP reverse proxy which is particularly suited for high availability environments.

The following packages have been upgraded to a later upstream version: rh-haproxy18-haproxy (1.8.17).
(BZ#1660514)

Security Fix(es):

* haproxy: Infinite recursion via crafted packet allows stack exhaustion and denial of service (CVE-2018-20103)

* haproxy: Information disclosure in check_request_for_cacheability function in proto_http.c (CVE-2018-11469)

* haproxy: Out-of-bounds read in dns.c:dns_validate_dns_response() allows for memory disclosure (CVE-2018-20102)

For more details about the security issue(s), including the impact, a CVSS score, acknowledgments, and other related information, refer to the CVE page(s) listed in the References section.

Bug Fix(es):

* ALPN is not enabled due to old OpenSSL dependancy (BZ#1595865)

* HAProxy 1.8: Seamless reload does not work with send-/accept-proxy (BZ#1649041)

Enhancement(s):

* RFE : Haproxy does not resolve ipv6 resolvable hostnames in the backend section. (BZ#1575585)
