  - Vulnerability in the Oracle GraalVM for JDK, Oracle GraalVM Enterprise Edition product of Oracle Java SE     (component: Compiler). Supported versions that are affected are Oracle GraalVM for JDK: 17.0.10, 21.0.2,     22; Oracle GraalVM Enterprise Edition: 20.3.13 and 21.3.9. Difficult to exploit vulnerability allows     unauthenticated attacker with network access via multiple protocols to compromise Oracle GraalVM for JDK,     Oracle GraalVM Enterprise Edition. Successful attacks of this vulnerability can result in unauthorized     ability to cause a partial denial of service (partial DOS) of Oracle GraalVM for JDK, Oracle GraalVM     Enterprise Edition. (CVE-2024-21098)

Note that Nessus relies on the presence of the package as reported by the vendor.

The versions of Oracle Database Server installed on the remote host are affected by multiple vulnerabilities as referenced in the July 2024 CPU advisory.

  - Netty project is an event-driven asynchronous network application framework. In versions prior to     4.1.86.Final, a StackOverflowError can be raised when parsing a malformed crafted message due to an     infinite recursion. This issue is patched in version 4.1.86.Final. There is no workaround, except using a     custom HaProxyMessageDecoder. (CVE-2022-41881)

  - Netty project is an event-driven asynchronous network application framework. Starting in version     4.1.83.Final and prior to 4.1.86.Final, when calling `DefaultHttpHeadesr.set` with an _iterator_ of     values, header value validation was not performed, allowing malicious header values in the iterator to     perform HTTP Response Splitting. This issue has been patched in version 4.1.86.Final. Integrators can work     around the issue by changing the `DefaultHttpHeaders.set(CharSequence, Iterator<?>)` call, into a     `remove()` call, and call `add()` in a loop over the iterator of values. (CVE-2022-41915)

  - A defect was discovered in the Python ssl module where there is a memory race condition with the     ssl.SSLContext methods cert_store_stats() and get_ca_certs(). The race condition can be triggered if     the methods are called at the same time as certificates are loaded into the SSLContext, such as during the     TLS handshake with a certificate directory configured. This issue is fixed in CPython 3.10.14, 3.11.9,     3.12.3, and 3.13.0a5. (CVE-2024-0397)
