Linux Distros Unpatched Vulnerability : CVE-2024-22117

low Nessus Plugin ID 228264

Synopsis

The Linux/Unix host has one or more packages installed with a vulnerability that the vendor indicates will not be patched.

Description

The Linux/Unix host has one or more packages installed that are impacted by a vulnerability without a vendor supplied patch available.

- When a URL is added to the map element, it is recorded in the database with sequential IDs. Upon adding a new URL, the system retrieves the last sysmapelementurlid value and increments it by one. However, an issue arises when a user manually changes the sysmapelementurlid value by adding sysmapelementurlid + 1.
This action prevents others from adding URLs to the map element. (CVE-2024-22117)

Note that Nessus relies on the presence of the package as reported by the vendor.

Solution

There is no known solution at this time.
