Synopsis

The remote Red Hat host is missing one or more security updates for parfait:0.5.

Description

The remote Redhat Enterprise Linux 8 host has packages installed that are affected by multiple vulnerabilities as referenced in the RHSA-2022:0291 advisory.

Parfait is a Java performance monitoring library that collects metrics and exposes them through a variety of outputs. It provides APIs for extracting performance metrics from the JVM and other sources. It interfaces to Performance Co-Pilot (PCP) using the Memory Mapped Value (MMV) machinery for extremely lightweight instrumentation.

Security Fix(es):

* log4j: SQL injection in Log4j 1.x when application is configured to use JDBCAppender (CVE-2022-23305)

* log4j: Unsafe deserialization flaw in Chainsaw log viewer (CVE-2022-23307)

* log4j: Remote code execution in Log4j 1.x when application is configured to use JMSAppender (CVE-2021-4104)

* log4j: Remote code execution in Log4j 1.x when application is configured to use JMSSink (CVE-2022-23302)

For more details about the security issue(s), including the impact, a CVSS score, acknowledgments, and other related information, refer to the CVE page(s) listed in the References section.

Tenable has extracted the preceding description block directly from the Red Hat Enterprise Linux security advisory.

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

Solution

Update the RHEL parfait:0.5 package based on the guidance in RHSA-2022:0291.
