high Nessus Plugin ID 166201

Synopsis

The remote Red Hat host is missing one or more security updates for nodejs:14.

Description

The remote Redhat Enterprise Linux 8 host has packages installed that are affected by multiple vulnerabilities as referenced in the RHSA-2022:6985 advisory.

- nodejs: DNS rebinding in --inspect via invalid IP addresses (CVE-2022-32212)

- nodejs: HTTP request smuggling due to flawed parsing of Transfer-Encoding (CVE-2022-32213)

- nodejs: HTTP request smuggling due to improper delimiting of header fields (CVE-2022-32214)

- nodejs: HTTP request smuggling due to incorrect parsing of multi-line Transfer-Encoding (CVE-2022-32215)

- nodejs-got: missing verification of requested URLs allows redirects to UNIX sockets (CVE-2022-33987)

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 nodejs:14 package based on the guidance in RHSA-2022:6985.
