Language:

Synopsis

The remote SUSE host is missing a security update.

Description

The remote SUSE Linux SLED15 / SLED_SAP15 / SLES15 / SLES_SAP15 / openSUSE 15 host has packages installed that are affected by a vulnerability as referenced in the SUSE-SU-2023:0037-1 advisory.

 - Updated to 2.60 state of Mozilla SSL root CAs (bsc#1206622) Removed CAs:
 - Global Chambersign Root
 - EC-ACC
 - Network Solutions Certificate Authority
 - Staat der Nederlanden EV Root CA
 - SwissSign Platinum CA - G2 Added CAs:
 - DIGITALSIGN GLOBAL ROOT ECDSA CA
 - DIGITALSIGN GLOBAL ROOT RSA CA
 - Security Communication ECC RootCA1
 - Security Communication RootCA3 Changed trust:
 - TrustCor certificates only trusted up to Nov 30 (bsc#1206212)
 - Removed CAs (bsc#1206212) as most code does not handle 'valid before nov 30 2022' and it is not clear how many certs were issued for SSL middleware by TrustCor:
 - TrustCor RootCert CA-1
 - TrustCor RootCert CA-2
 - TrustCor ECA-1

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 ca-certificates-mozilla and / or ca-certificates-mozilla-prebuilt packages.
