The remote Redhat Enterprise Linux 9 host has packages installed that are affected by multiple vulnerabilities as referenced in the RHSA-2024:7260 advisory.

    The net-snmp packages provide various libraries and tools for the Simple Network Management Protocol     (SNMP), including an SNMP library, an extensible agent, tools for requesting or setting information from     SNMP agents, tools for generating and handling SNMP traps, a version of the netstat command which uses     SNMP, and a Tk/Perl Management Information Base (MIB) browser.

    Security Fix(es):

    * net-snmp: A buffer overflow in the handling of the INDEX of             NET-SNMP-VACM-MIB can cause an     out-of-bounds memory access. (CVE-2022-24805)

    * : net-snmp: Improper Input Validation when SETing malformed OIDs in master agent and subagent     simultaneously (CVE-2022-24806)

    * net-snmp: A malformed OID in a SET request to SNMP-VIEW-BASED-ACM-MIB::vacmAccessTable can cause an out-     of-bounds memory access (CVE-2022-24807)

    * net-snmp: A malformed OID in a GET-NEXT to the nsVacmAccessTable can cause a NULL pointer dereference.
    (CVE-2022-24809)

    * net-snmp: A malformed OID in a SET request to NET-SNMP-AGENT-MIB::nsLogTable can cause a NULL pointer     dereference (CVE-2022-24808)

    * net-snmp: A malformed OID in a SET to the nsVacmAccessTable can cause a NULL pointer dereference.
    (CVE-2022-24810)
