CBL Mariner 2.0 Security Update: python3 (CVE-2024-11168)

medium Nessus Plugin ID 212013

Synopsis

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

Description

The version of python3 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-2024-11168 advisory.

- The urllib.parse.urlsplit() and urlparse() functions improperly validated bracketed hosts (`[]`), allowing hosts that weren't IPv6 or IPvFuture. This behavior was not conformant to RFC 3986 and potentially enabled SSRF if a URL is processed by more than one URL parser. (CVE-2024-11168)

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

Solution

Update the affected packages.
