The version of iperf3 installed on the remote CBL Mariner 2.0 host is prior to tested version. It is, therefore, affected by a vulnerability as referenced in the CVE-2023-7250 advisory.

  - A flaw was found in iperf, a utility for testing network performance using TCP, UDP, and SCTP. A malicious     or malfunctioning client can send less than the expected amount of data to the iperf server, which can     cause the server to hang indefinitely waiting for the remainder or until the connection gets closed. This     will prevent other connections to the server, leading to a denial of service. (CVE-2023-7250)

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

The version of iperf3 installed on the remote host is prior to 3.1.7-2. It is, therefore, affected by a vulnerability as referenced in the ALAS2-2024-2579 advisory.

    It is possible for a malicious or malfunctioning client to send lessthan the expected amount of data to     the server. If this happens, theserver will hang indefinitely waiting for the remainder (or until     theconnection gets closed). Because iperf3 is deliberately designed toservice only one client connection     at a time, this will prevent otherconnections to the iperf3 server.Avoid running iperf3 with root     privileges to minimize impact.Update iperf3 to a version containing the fix (i.e. iperf-3.15 orlater).
