Synopsis

The remote SUSE host is missing a security update.

Description

The remote SUSE Linux SLES15 / SLES_SAP15 host has packages installed that are affected by a vulnerability as referenced in the SUSE-SU-2022:1832-1 advisory.

Security:
- CVE-2022-29155: Fixed SQL injection in back-sql (bsc#1199240).

Bugfixes:
- allow specification of max/min TLS version with TLS1.3 (bsc#1191157)
- libldap was able to be out of step with openldap in some cases which could cause incorrect installations and symbol resolution failures. openldap2 and libldap now are locked to their related release versions.
(bsc#1197004)
- restore CLDAP functionality in CLI tools (jsc#PM-3288)

Tenable has extracted the preceding description block directly from the SUSE security advisory.

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

Solution

Update the affected packages.
