FreeBSD : go -- multiple vulnerabilities (704aa72a-d840-11ef-a205-901b0e9408dc)

medium Nessus Plugin ID 214500

Synopsis

The remote FreeBSD host is missing one or more security-related updates.

Description

The version of FreeBSD installed on the remote host is prior to tested version. It is, therefore, affected by multiple vulnerabilities as referenced in the 704aa72a-d840-11ef-a205-901b0e9408dc advisory.

The Go project reports:
crypto/x509: usage of IPv6 zone IDs can bypass URI name constraints A certificate with a URI which has a IPv6 address with a zone ID may incorrectly satisfy a URI name constraint that applies to the certificate chain.
net/http: sensitive headers incorrectly sent after cross-domain redirect The HTTP client drops sensitive headers after following a cross-domain redirect. For example, a request to a.com/ containing an Authorization header which is redirected to b.com/ will not send that header to b.com.

Tenable has extracted the preceding description block directly from the FreeBSD 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 affected packages.
