Synopsis

The remote Red Hat host is missing one or more security updates.

Description

The remote Redhat Enterprise Linux 8 host has packages installed that are affected by multiple vulnerabilities as referenced in the RHSA-2022:7457 advisory.

- golang: net/http/httputil: panic due to racy read of persistConn after handler panic (CVE-2021-36221)

- opencontainers: OCI manifest and index parsing confusion (CVE-2021-41190)

- cri-o: memory exhaustion on the node when access to the kube api (CVE-2022-1708)

- The golang.org/x/crypto/ssh package before 0.0.0-20220314234659-1baeb1ce4c0b for Go allows an attacker to crash a server in certain circumstances involving AddHostKey. (CVE-2022-27191)

- runc: incorrect handling of inheritable capabilities (CVE-2022-29162)

- An incorrect handling of the supplementary groups in the Buildah container engine might lead to the sensitive information disclosure or possible data modification if an attacker has direct access to the affected container where supplementary groups are used to set access permissions and is able to execute a binary code in that container. (CVE-2022-2990)

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 affected packages.
