critical Nessus Plugin ID 212725

Synopsis

The remote Ubuntu host is missing one or more security updates.

Description

The remote Ubuntu 20.04 LTS / 22.04 LTS / 24.04 LTS / 24.10 host has packages installed that are affected by multiple vulnerabilities as referenced in the USN-7157-1 advisory.

It was discovered that PHP incorrectly handled certain inputs when processed with convert.quoted-printable decode filters. An attacker could possibly use this issue to expose sensitive information or cause a crash. (CVE-2024-11233)

It was discovered that PHP incorrectly handled certain HTTP requests. An attacker could possibly use this issue to performing arbitrary HTTP requests originating from the server, thus potentially gaining access to resources not normally available to the external user. (CVE-2024-11234)

It was discovered that PHP incorrectly handled certain inputs. An attacker could possibly use this issue to cause a crash or execute arbitrary code. (CVE-2024-11236, CVE-2024-8932)

It was discovered that PHP incorrectly handled certain MySQL requests. An attacker could possibly use this issue to cause the client to disclose the content of its heap containing data from other SQL requests and possible other data belonging to different users of the same server. (CVE-2024-8929)

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

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