medium Nessus Plugin ID 200740

Language:

Synopsis

The remote Ubuntu host is missing a security update.

Description

The remote Ubuntu 20.04 LTS / 22.04 LTS / 23.10 / 24.04 LTS host has packages installed that are affected by a vulnerability as referenced in the USN-6841-1 advisory.

 It was discovered that PHP could early return in the filter_var function resulting in invalid user information being treated as valid user information. An attacker could possibly use this issue to expose raw user input information.

Tenable has extracted the preceding description block directly from the Ubuntu security advisory.

Note that Nessus has not tested for this issue but has instead relied only on the application's self-reported version number.

Solution
