Nutanix AOS : (NXSA-AOS-6.6.0.5)

high Nessus Plugin ID 173333

Language:

Synopsis

The Nutanix AOS host is affected by a vulnerability.

Description

The version of AOS installed on the remote host is prior to 6.6.0.5. It is, therefore, affected by a vulnerability as referenced in the NXSA-AOS-6.6.0.5 advisory.

 - The JsonErrorReportValve in Apache Tomcat 8.5.83, 9.0.40 to 9.0.68 and 10.1.0-M1 to 10.1.1 did not escape the type, message or description values. In some circumstances these are constructed from user provided data and it was therefore possible for users to supply values that invalidated or manipulated the JSON output. (CVE-2022-45143)

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 Nutanix AOS software to recommended version.
