The remote AlmaLinux 8 host has packages installed that are affected by a vulnerability as referenced in the ALSA-2023:5460 advisory.

  - The code that processes control channel messages sent to `named` calls certain functions recursively     during packet parsing. Recursion depth is only limited by the maximum accepted packet size; depending on     the environment, this may cause the packet-parsing code to run out of available stack memory, causing     `named` to terminate unexpectedly. Since each incoming control channel message is fully parsed before its     contents are authenticated, exploiting this flaw does not require the attacker to hold a valid RNDC key;
    only network access to the control channel's configured TCP port is necessary. This issue affects BIND 9     versions 9.2.0 through 9.16.43, 9.18.0 through 9.18.18, 9.19.0 through 9.19.16, 9.9.3-S1 through     9.16.43-S1, and 9.18.0-S1 through 9.18.18-S1. (CVE-2023-3341)

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

  - bind: stack exhaustion in control channel code may lead to DoS (CVE-2023-3341)

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

https://cve.mitre.org/cgi-bin/cvename.cgi?name=CVE-2023-3341 ISC BIND is vulnerable to a denial of service, caused by a stack exhaustion flaw in control channel code. By sending a specially crafted message over the control channel, a remote attacker could exploit this vulnerability to cause named to terminate.

According to the versions of the bind packages installed, the EulerOS installation on the remote host is affected by the following vulnerabilities :

The version of AOS installed on the remote host is prior to 6.7.1.6. It is, therefore, affected by multiple vulnerabilities as referenced in the NXSA-AOS-6.7.1.6 advisory.

  - An issue was discovered in Python before 3.8.18, 3.9.x before 3.9.18, 3.10.x before 3.10.13, and 3.11.x     before 3.11.5. It primarily affects servers (such as HTTP servers) that use TLS client authentication. If     a TLS server-side socket is created, receives data into the socket buffer, and then is closed quickly,     there is a brief window where the SSLSocket instance will detect the socket as not connected and won't     initiate a handshake, but buffered data will still be readable from the socket buffer. This data will not     be authenticated if the server-side TLS peer is expecting client certificate authentication, and is     indistinguishable from valid TLS stream data. Data is limited in size to the amount that will fit in the     buffer. (The TLS connection cannot directly be used for data exfiltration because the vulnerable code path     requires that the connection be closed on initialization of the SSLSocket.) (CVE-2023-40217)

  - An authentication issue was addressed with improved state management. This issue is fixed in macOS Big Sur     11.7.7, macOS Monterey 12.6.6, macOS Ventura 13.4. An unauthenticated user may be able to access recently     printed documents. (CVE-2023-32360)

(CVE-2023-34058)

  - open-vm-tools contains a file descriptor hijack vulnerability in the vmware-user-suid-wrapper. A malicious     actor with non-root privileges may be able to hijack the /dev/uinput file descriptor allowing them to     simulate user inputs. (CVE-2023-34059)

  - A use after free vulnerability exists in curl <7.87.0. Curl can be asked to *tunnel* virtually all     protocols it supports through an HTTP proxy. HTTP proxies can (and often do) deny such tunnel operations.
    When getting denied to tunnel the specific protocols SMB or TELNET, curl would use a heap-allocated struct     after it had been freed, in its transfer shutdown code path. (CVE-2022-43552)
