The remote Ubuntu 16.04 ESM host has packages installed that are affected by multiple vulnerabilities as referenced in the USN-6475-1 advisory.

    It was discovered that Cobbler did not properly handle user input, which could result in an absolute path     traversal. An attacker could possibly

    use this issue to read arbitrary files. (CVE-2014-3225)

    It was discovered that Cobbler did not properly handle user input, which could result in command     injection. An attacker could possibly use this

    issue to execute arbitrary code with high privileges.

    (CVE-2017-1000469, CVE-2021-45082)

    It was discovered that Cobbler did not properly hide private functions in a class. A remote attacker could     possibly use this issue to gain high

    privileges and upload files to an arbitrary location.

    (CVE-2018-10931, CVE-2018-1000225, CVE-2018-1000226)

    Nicolas Chatelain discovered that Cobbler did not properly handle user

    input, which could result in log poisoning. A remote attacker could

    possibly use this issue to bypass authorization, write in an arbitrary

    file, or execute arbitrary code.

    (CVE-2021-40323, CVE-2021-40324, CVE-2021-40325)

    It was discovered that Cobbler did not properly handle file permissions

    during package install or update operations. An attacker could possibly

    use this issue to perform a privilege escalation attack. (CVE-2021-45083)

    It was discovered that Cobbler did not properly process credentials for

    expired accounts. An attacker could possibly use this issue to login to

    the platform with an expired account or password. (CVE-2022-0860)

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.

The remote SUSE Linux SLES15 host has packages installed that are affected by multiple vulnerabilities as referenced in the SUSE-SU-2022:3761-1 advisory.

  - drools <=7.59.x is affected by an XML External Entity (XXE) vulnerability in KieModuleMarshaller.java. The     Validator class is not used correctly, resulting in the XXE injection vulnerability. (CVE-2021-41411)

  - The shell-quote package before 1.7.3 for Node.js allows command injection. An attacker can inject     unescaped shell metacharacters through a regex designed to support Windows drive letters. If the output of     this package is passed to a real shell as a quoted argument to a command with exec(), an attacker can     inject arbitrary commands. This is because the Windows drive letter regex character class is {A-z] instead     of the correct {A-Za-z]. Several shell metacharacters exist in the space between capital letter Z and     lower case letter a, such as the backtick character. (CVE-2021-42740)

  - In Async before 2.6.4 and 3.x before 3.2.2, a malicious user can obtain privileges via the mapValues()     method, aka lib/internal/iterator.js createObjectIterator prototype pollution. (CVE-2021-43138)

  - Improper Authorization in GitHub repository cobbler/cobbler prior to 3.3.2. (CVE-2022-0860)

  - moment is a JavaScript date library for parsing, validating, manipulating, and formatting dates. Affected     versions of moment were found to use an inefficient parsing algorithm. Specifically using string-to-date     parsing in moment (more specifically rfc2822 parsing, which is tried by default) has quadratic (N^2)     complexity on specific inputs. Users may notice a noticeable slowdown is observed with inputs above 10k     characters. Users who pass user-provided strings without sanity length checks to moment constructor are     vulnerable to (Re)DoS attacks. The problem is patched in 2.29.4, the patch can be applied to all affected     versions with minimal tweaking. Users are advised to upgrade. Users unable to upgrade should consider     limiting date lengths accepted from user input. (CVE-2022-31129)
