There are packages installed that are affected by a vulnerability referenced in the following CVE:

  - In Erlang/OTP before 23.3.4.15, 24.x before 24.3.4.2, and 25.x before 25.0.2, there is a Client
    Authentication Bypass in certain client-certification situations for SSL, TLS, and DTLS. (CVE-2022-37026)

According to its self-reported version, the Tenable.ad running on the remote host is prior to 3.29.4 / 3.19.12 / 3.11.9. Tenable.ad leverages third-party software to help provide underlying functionality. One of the third-party components (Erlang) was found to contain a Client Authentication Bypass in certain client-certification situations for SSL, TLS, and DTLS. Out of caution and in line with best practice, Tenable has opted to upgrade these components to address the potential impact of the issues. Tenable.ad on-premise versions 3.29.4, 3.19.12 and 3.11.9 update Erlang to version 25.1.2 to address the identified vulnerability.

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

    Package        : erlang     Version        : 1:22.2.7+dfsg-1+deb10u1     CVE ID         : CVE-2022-37026     Debian Bug     : 1024632

    A Client Authentication Bypass vulnerability has been discovered in the     concurrent, real-time, distributed functional language Erlang. Impacted are     those who are running an ssl/tls/dtls server using the ssl application     either directly or indirectly via other applications. Note that the     vulnerability only affects servers that request client certification, that     is sets the option {verify, verify_peer}.

    Additionally the source package elixir-lang has been rebuilt against the new     erlang version. The rabbitmq-server package was upgraded to version 3.8.2 to     fix an incompatibility with Erlang 22.

    For Debian 10 buster, this problem has been fixed in version     1:22.2.7+dfsg-1+deb10u1.

    We recommend that you upgrade your erlang packages.
