high Nessus Plugin ID 206600

Synopsis

The remote Red Hat host is missing one or more security updates for resource-agents.

Description

The remote Redhat Enterprise Linux 8 host has packages installed that are affected by multiple vulnerabilities as referenced in the RHSA-2024:6311 advisory.

The resource-agents packages provide the Pacemaker and RGManager service managers with a set of scripts.
These scripts interface with several services to allow operating in a high-availability (HA) environment.

Security Fix(es):

* urllib3: proxy-authorization request header is not stripped during cross-origin redirects (CVE-2024-37891)

* pypa/setuptools: Remote code execution via download functions in the package_index module in pypa/setuptools (CVE-2024-6345)

For more details about the security issue(s), including the impact, a CVSS score, acknowledgments, and other related information, refer to the CVE page(s) listed in the References section.

Tenable has extracted the preceding description block directly from the Red Hat Enterprise Linux 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

Update the RHEL resource-agents package based on the guidance in RHSA-2024:6311.
