Synopsis

The remote EulerOS host is missing a security update.

Description

According to the versions of the python-urllib3 package installed, the EulerOS installation on the remote host is affected by the following vulnerabilities :

- urllib3 before 1.25.9 allows CRLF injection if the attacker controls the HTTP request method, as demonstrated by inserting CR and LF control characters in the first argument of putrequest(). NOTE: this is similar to CVE-2020-26116. (CVE-2020-26137)

Note that Tenable Network Security has extracted the preceding description block directly from the EulerOS security advisory. Tenable has attempted to automatically clean and format it as much as possible without introducing additional issues.
