Rocky Linux 8 : prometheus-jmx-exporter (RLSA-2022:9058)

critical Nessus Plugin ID 170779

Synopsis

The remote Rocky Linux host is missing a security update.

Description

The remote Rocky Linux 8 host has packages installed that are affected by a vulnerability as referenced in the RLSA-2022:9058 advisory.

 - SnakeYaml's Constructor() class does not restrict types which can be instantiated during deserialization.
 Deserializing yaml content provided by an attacker can lead to remote code execution. We recommend using SnakeYaml's SafeConsturctor when parsing untrusted content to restrict deserialization. (CVE-2022-1471)

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 packages.
