high Nessus Plugin ID 129520

Synopsis

The remote Red Hat host is missing one or more security updates for Red Hat JBoss Core Services Apache HTTP Server 2.4.29 SP3.

Description

The remote Redhat Enterprise Linux 6 / 7 host has packages installed that are affected by multiple vulnerabilities as referenced in the RHSA-2019:2946 advisory.

- HTTP/2: large amount of data requests leads to denial of service (CVE-2019-9511)

- HTTP/2: flood using PRIORITY frames results in excessive resource consumption (CVE-2019-9513)

- HTTP/2: 0-length headers lead to denial of service (CVE-2019-9516)

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