Amazon Linux 2022 : (ALAS2022-2022-144)

high Nessus Plugin ID 165576

Synopsis

The remote Amazon Linux 2022 host is missing a security update.

Description

It is, therefore, affected by multiple vulnerabilities as referenced in the ALAS2022-2022-144 advisory.

- In net/http in Go before 1.18.6 and 1.19.x before 1.19.1, attackers can cause a denial of service because an HTTP/2 connection can hang during closing if shutdown were preempted by a fatal error. (CVE-2022-27664)

- JoinPath and URL.JoinPath do not remove ../ path elements appended to a relative path. For example, JoinPath(https://go.dev, ../go) returns the URL https://go.dev/../go, despite the JoinPath documentation stating that ../ path elements are removed from the result. (CVE-2022-32190)

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

Solution

Run 'dnf update golang --releasever=2022.0.20220928' to update your system.
