The remote Redhat Enterprise Linux 7 / 8 host has packages installed that are affected by multiple vulnerabilities as referenced in the RHSA-2021:4118 advisory.

  - haproxy: does not ensure that the scheme and path portions of a URI have the expected characters     (CVE-2021-39240)

  - haproxy: an HTTP method name may contain a space followed by the name of a protected resource     (CVE-2021-39241)

  - haproxy: it can lead to a situation with an attacker-controlled HTTP Host header because a mismatch     between Host and authority is mishandled (CVE-2021-39242)

  - haproxy: request smuggling attack or response splitting via duplicate content-length header     (CVE-2021-40346)

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

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

  - An issue was discovered in HAProxy 2.0 before 2.0.24, 2.2 before 2.2.16, 2.3 before 2.3.13, and 2.4 before     2.4.3. An HTTP method name may contain a space followed by the name of a protected resource. It is     possible that a server would interpret this as a request for that protected resource, such as in the 'GET     /admin? HTTP/1.1 /static/images HTTP/1.1' example. (CVE-2021-39241)

  - An issue was discovered in HAProxy 2.2 before 2.2.16, 2.3 before 2.3.13, and 2.4 before 2.4.3. It can lead     to a situation with an attacker-controlled HTTP Host header, because a mismatch between Host and authority     is mishandled. (CVE-2021-39242)

Note that Tenable Network Security has extracted the preceding description block directly from the EulerOS security advisory. Tenable has attempted to automatically clean and format it as much as possible without introducing additional issues.

The remote Debian 11 host has packages installed that are affected by multiple vulnerabilities as referenced in the dsa-4960 advisory.

  - An issue was discovered in HAProxy 2.2 before 2.2.16, 2.3 before 2.3.13, and 2.4 before 2.4.3. It does not     ensure that the scheme and path portions of a URI have the expected characters. For example, the authority     field (as observed on a target HTTP/2 server) might differ from what the routing rules were intended to     achieve. (CVE-2021-39240)

  - An issue was discovered in HAProxy 2.0 before 2.0.24, 2.2 before 2.2.16, 2.3 before 2.3.13, and 2.4 before     2.4.3. An HTTP method name may contain a space followed by the name of a protected resource. It is     possible that a server would interpret this as a request for that protected resource, such as in the GET     /admin? HTTP/1.1 /static/images HTTP/1.1 example. (CVE-2021-39241)

  - An issue was discovered in HAProxy 2.2 before 2.2.16, 2.3 before 2.3.13, and 2.4 before 2.4.3. It can lead     to a situation with an attacker-controlled HTTP Host header, because a mismatch between Host and authority     is mishandled. (CVE-2021-39242)

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

An update of the haproxy package has been released.

The remote CentOS Linux 9 host has a package installed that is affected by multiple vulnerabilities as referenced in the haproxy-2.4.7-1.el9 build changelog.

  - An issue was discovered in HAProxy 2.2 before 2.2.16, 2.3 before 2.3.13, and 2.4 before 2.4.3. It does not     ensure that the scheme and path portions of a URI have the expected characters. For example, the authority     field (as observed on a target HTTP/2 server) might differ from what the routing rules were intended to     achieve. (CVE-2021-39240)

  - An issue was discovered in HAProxy 2.0 before 2.0.24, 2.2 before 2.2.16, 2.3 before 2.3.13, and 2.4 before     2.4.3. An HTTP method name may contain a space followed by the name of a protected resource. It is     possible that a server would interpret this as a request for that protected resource, such as in the GET     /admin? HTTP/1.1 /static/images HTTP/1.1 example. (CVE-2021-39241)

  - An issue was discovered in HAProxy 2.2 before 2.2.16, 2.3 before 2.3.13, and 2.4 before 2.4.3. It can lead     to a situation with an attacker-controlled HTTP Host header, because a mismatch between Host and authority     is mishandled. (CVE-2021-39242)

  - An integer overflow exists in HAProxy 2.0 through 2.5 in htx_add_header that can be exploited to perform     an HTTP request smuggling attack, allowing an attacker to bypass all configured http-request HAProxy ACLs     and possibly other ACLs. (CVE-2021-40346)

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 haproxy2 installed on the remote host is prior to 2.2.17-1. It is, therefore, affected by multiple vulnerabilities as referenced in the ALAS2HAPROXY2-2023-005 advisory.
