Alpine: freeradius: security update to 3.0.26-r0
high Tenable Cloud Security Plugin ID 404493
Description
There are packages installed that are affected by multiple vulnerabilities referenced in the following CVEs:- In freeradius, the EAP-PWD function compute_password_element() leaks information about the password which
allows an attacker to substantially reduce the size of an offline dictionary attack. (CVE-2022-41859)
- In freeradius, when an EAP-SIM supplicant sends an unknown SIM option, the server will try to look that
option up in the internal dictionaries. This lookup will fail, but the SIM code will not check for that
failure. Instead, it will dereference a NULL pointer, and cause the server to crash. (CVE-2022-41860)
- A flaw was found in freeradius. A malicious RADIUS client or home server can send a malformed abinary
attribute which can cause the server to crash. (CVE-2022-41861)
