CBL Mariner 2.0 Security Update: protobuf / keras / python-tensorboard / grpc (CVE-2022-1941)

high Nessus Plugin ID 205787

Synopsis

The remote CBL Mariner host is missing one or more security updates.

Description

The version of protobuf / keras / python-tensorboard / grpc installed on the remote CBL Mariner 2.0 host is prior to tested version. It is, therefore, affected by a vulnerability as referenced in the CVE-2022-1941 advisory.

- A parsing vulnerability for the MessageSet type in the ProtocolBuffers versions prior to and including 3.16.1, 3.17.3, 3.18.2, 3.19.4, 3.20.1 and 3.21.5 for protobuf-cpp, and versions prior to and including 3.16.1, 3.17.3, 3.18.2, 3.19.4, 3.20.1 and 4.21.5 for protobuf-python can lead to out of memory failures.
A specially crafted message with multiple key-value per elements creates parsing issues, and can lead to a Denial of Service against services receiving unsanitized input. We recommend upgrading to versions 3.18.3, 3.19.5, 3.20.2, 3.21.6 for protobuf-cpp and 3.18.3, 3.19.5, 3.20.2, 4.21.6 for protobuf-python. Versions for 3.16 and 3.17 are no longer updated. (CVE-2022-1941)

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