Synopsis

The remote SUSE host is missing one or more security updates.

Description

The remote SUSE Linux SLED15 / SLED_SAP15 / SLES15 / SLES_SAP15 / openSUSE 15 host has packages installed that are affected by multiple vulnerabilities as referenced in the SUSE-SU-2024:2479-1 advisory.

- CVE-2023-52425: Fixed backport so it uses features sniffing, not just comparing version number (bsc#1219559).
- CVE-2024-0450: Fixed detecting the vulnerability of 'quoted-overlap' zipbomb (bsc#1221854).
- CVE-2024-4032: Rearranging definition of private v global IP. (bsc#1226448)
- CVE-2024-0397: Remove a memory race condition in ssl.SSLContext certificate store methods. (bsc#1226447)

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