The remote AlmaLinux 9 host has packages installed that are affected by multiple vulnerabilities as referenced in the ALSA-2023:3577 advisory.

  - c-ares is an asynchronous resolver library. When cross-compiling c-ares and using the autotools build     system, CARES_RANDOM_FILE will not be set, as seen when cross compiling aarch64 android. This will     downgrade to using rand() as a fallback which could allow an attacker to take advantage of the lack of     entropy by not using a CSPRNG. This issue was patched in version 1.19.1. (CVE-2023-31124)

  - c-ares is an asynchronous resolver library. ares_inet_net_pton() is vulnerable to a buffer underflow for     certain ipv6 addresses, in particular 0::00:00:00/2 was found to cause an issue. C-ares only uses this     function internally for configuration purposes which would require an administrator to configure such an     address via ares_set_sortlist(). However, users may externally use ares_inet_net_pton() for other purposes     and thus be vulnerable to more severe issues. This issue has been fixed in 1.19.1. (CVE-2023-31130)

  - c-ares is an asynchronous resolver library. When /dev/urandom or RtlGenRandom() are unavailable, c-ares     uses rand() to generate random numbers used for DNS query ids. This is not a CSPRNG, and it is also not     seeded by srand() so will generate predictable output. Input from the random number generator is fed into     a non-compilant RC4 implementation and may not be as strong as the original RC4 implementation. No attempt     is made to look for modern OS-provided CSPRNGs like arc4random() that is widely available. This issue has     been fixed in version 1.19.1. (CVE-2023-31147)

  - c-ares is an asynchronous resolver library. c-ares is vulnerable to denial of service. If a target     resolver sends a query, the attacker forges a malformed UDP packet with a length of 0 and returns them to     the target resolver. The target resolver erroneously interprets the 0 length as a graceful shutdown of the     connection. This issue has been patched in version 1.19.1. (CVE-2023-32067)

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

The remote CentOS Linux 9 host has packages installed that are affected by multiple vulnerabilities as referenced in the nodejs-16.20.1-1.el9 build changelog.

  - The use of __proto__ in process.mainModule.__proto__.require() can bypass the policy mechanism and require     modules outside of the policy.json definition. This vulnerability affects all users using the experimental     policy mechanism in all active release lines: v16, v18 and, v20. Please note that at the time this CVE was     issued, the policy is an experimental feature of Node.js (CVE-2023-30581)

  - When an invalid public key is used to create an x509 certificate using the crypto.X509Certificate() API a     non-expect termination occurs making it susceptible to DoS attacks when the attacker could force     interruptions of application processing, as the process terminates when accessing public key info of     provided certificates from user code. The current context of the users will be gone, and that will cause a     DoS scenario. This vulnerability affects all active Node.js versions v16, v18, and, v20. (CVE-2023-30588)

  - The llhttp parser in the http module in Node v20.2.0 does not strictly use the CRLF sequence to delimit     HTTP requests. This can lead to HTTP Request Smuggling (HRS). The CR character (without LF) is sufficient     to delimit HTTP header fields in the llhttp parser. According to RFC7230 section 3, only the CRLF sequence     should delimit each header-field. This impacts all Node.js active versions: v16, v18, and, v20     (CVE-2023-30589)

  - The generateKeys() API function returned from crypto.createDiffieHellman() only generates missing (or     outdated) keys, that is, it only generates a private key if none has been set yet, but the function is     also needed to compute the corresponding public key after calling setPrivateKey(). However, the     documentation says this API call: Generates private and public Diffie-Hellman key values. The documented     behavior is very different from the actual behavior, and this difference could easily lead to security     issues in applications that use these APIs as the DiffieHellman may be used as the basis for application-     level security, implications are consequently broad. (CVE-2023-30590)

  - c-ares is an asynchronous resolver library. When cross-compiling c-ares and using the autotools build     system, CARES_RANDOM_FILE will not be set, as seen when cross compiling aarch64 android. This will     downgrade to using rand() as a fallback which could allow an attacker to take advantage of the lack of     entropy by not using a CSPRNG. This issue was patched in version 1.19.1. (CVE-2023-31124)

  - c-ares is an asynchronous resolver library. ares_inet_net_pton() is vulnerable to a buffer underflow for     certain ipv6 addresses, in particular 0::00:00:00/2 was found to cause an issue. C-ares only uses this     function internally for configuration purposes which would require an administrator to configure such an     address via ares_set_sortlist(). However, users may externally use ares_inet_net_pton() for other purposes     and thus be vulnerable to more severe issues. This issue has been fixed in 1.19.1. (CVE-2023-31130)

  - c-ares is an asynchronous resolver library. When /dev/urandom or RtlGenRandom() are unavailable, c-ares     uses rand() to generate random numbers used for DNS query ids. This is not a CSPRNG, and it is also not     seeded by srand() so will generate predictable output.

No attempt     is made to look for modern OS-provided CSPRNGs like arc4random() that is widely available. This issue has     been fixed in version 1.19.1. (CVE-2023-31147)

  - c-ares is an asynchronous resolver library. c-ares is vulnerable to denial of service. If a target     resolver sends a query, the attacker forges a malformed UDP packet with a length of 0 and returns them to     the target resolver. The target resolver erroneously interprets the 0 length as a graceful shutdown of the     connection. This issue has been patched in version 1.19.1. (CVE-2023-32067)

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

The version of Siemens SINEC NMS installed on the remote host is prior to 2.0.1.0. It is, therefore, affected by multiple vulnerabilities as referenced in the SSA-943925 advisory.

  - coreruleset (aka OWASP ModSecurity Core Rule Set) through 3.3.4 does not detect multiple Content-Type     request headers on some platforms. This might allow attackers to bypass a WAF with a crafted payload,     aka Content-Type confusion between the WAF and the backend application. This occurs when the web     application relies on only the last Content-Type header. Other platforms may reject the additional     Content-Type header or merge conflicting headers, leading to detection as a malformed header.
    (CVE-2023-38199)

  - Some mod_proxy configurations on Apache HTTP Server versions 2.4.0 through 2.4.55 allow a HTTP Request     Smuggling attack. Configurations are affected when mod_proxy is enabled along with some form of     RewriteRule or ProxyPassMatch in which a non-specific pattern matches some portion of the user-supplied     request-target (URL) data and is then re-inserted into the proxied request-target using variable     substitution. For example, something like: RewriteEngine on RewriteRule ^/here/(.*)     http://example.com:8080/elsewhere?$1; [P] ProxyPassReverse /here/ http://example.com:8080/ Request     splitting/smuggling could result in bypass of access controls in the proxy server, proxying unintended     URLs to existing origin servers, and cache poisoning. Users are recommended to update to at least version     2.4.56 of Apache HTTP Server. (CVE-2023-25690)

  - The use of `Module._load()` can bypass the policy mechanism and require modules outside of the policy.json     definition for a given module. This vulnerability affects all users using the experimental policy     mechanism in all active release lines: 16.x, 18.x and, 20.x. Please note that at the time this CVE was     issued, the policy is an experimental feature of Node.js. (CVE-2023-32002)
