RHEL 8 : odo (Unpatched Vulnerability)
medium Nessus Plugin ID 199727
Synopsis
The remote Red Hat 8 host is affected by multiple vulnerabilities that will not be patched.Description
The remote Redhat Enterprise Linux 8 host has one or more packages installed that are affected by multiple vulnerabilities that have been acknowledged by the vendor but will not be patched.- follow-redirects: Exposure of Sensitive Information via Authorization Header leak (CVE-2022-0536)
- golang: net/http/httputil: NewSingleHostReverseProxy - omit X-Forwarded-For not working (CVE-2022-32148)
- client_golang is the instrumentation library for Go applications in Prometheus, and the promhttp package in client_golang provides tooling around HTTP servers and clients. In client_golang prior to version 1.11.1, HTTP server is susceptible to a Denial of Service through unbounded cardinality, and potential memory exhaustion, when handling requests with non-standard HTTP methods. In order to be affected, an instrumented software must use any of `promhttp.InstrumentHandler*` middleware except `RequestsInFlight`;
not filter any specific methods (e.g GET) before middleware; pass metric with `method` label name to our middleware; and not have any firewall/LB/proxy that filters away requests with unknown `method`.
client_golang version 1.11.1 contains a patch for this issue. Several workarounds are available, including removing the `method` label name from counter/gauge used in the InstrumentHandler; turning off affected promhttp handlers; adding custom middleware before promhttp handler that will sanitize the request method given by Go http.Request; and using a reverse proxy or web application firewall, configured to only allow a limited set of methods. (CVE-2022-21698)
Note that Nessus has not tested for these issues but has instead relied on the package manager's report that the package is installed.
Solution
The vendor has acknowledged the vulnerabilities but no solution has been provided. Refer to the vendor for remediation guidance.See Also
