Amazon Linux 2 : docker (ALASNITRO-ENCLAVES-2024-046)

critical Nessus Plugin ID 206330

Synopsis

The remote Amazon Linux 2 host is missing a security update.

Description

The version of docker installed on the remote host is prior to 25.0.3-1. It is, therefore, affected by multiple vulnerabilities as referenced in the ALAS2NITRO-ENCLAVES-2024-046 advisory.

When following an HTTP redirect to a domain which is not a subdomain match or exact match of the initial domain, an http.Client does not forward sensitive headers such as Authorization or Cookie. For example, a redirect from foo.com to www.foo.com will forward the Authorization header, but a redirect to bar.com will not. A maliciously crafted HTTP redirect could cause sensitive headers to be unexpectedly forwarded. (CVE-2023-45289)

The various Is methods (IsPrivate, IsLoopback, etc) did not work as expected for IPv4-mapped IPv6 addresses, returning false for addresses which would return true in their traditional IPv4 forms.
(CVE-2024-24790)

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

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

Solution

Run 'yum update docker' to update your system.
