Synopsis

The remote SUSE host is missing one or more security updates.

Description

The remote SUSE Linux SLED15 / SLED_SAP15 / SLES15 / SLES_SAP15 / openSUSE 15 host has packages installed that are affected by multiple vulnerabilities as referenced in the SUSE-SU-2023:2187-1 advisory.

 golang-github-prometheus-alertmanager:

 - Security issues fixed:
 * CVE-2022-46146: Fix authentication bypass via cache poisoning (bsc#1208051)

 golang-github-prometheus-node_exporter:

 - Security issues fixed in this version update to version 1.5.0 (jsc#PED-3578):
 * CVE-2022-27191: Update go/x/crypto (bsc#1197284)
 * CVE-2022-27664: Update go/x/net (bsc#1203185)
 * CVE-2022-46146: Update exporter-toolkit (bsc#1208064)
 - Other non-security bug fixes and changes in this version update to 1.5.0 (jsc#PED-3578):
 * NOTE: This changes the Go runtime 'GOMAXPROCS' to 1. This is done to limit the concurrency of the exporter to 1 CPU thread at a time in order to avoid a race condition problem in the Linux kernel and parallel IO issues on nodes with high numbers of CPUs/CPU threads.

Tenable has extracted the preceding description block directly from the SUSE security advisory.

Note that Nessus has not tested for these issues but has instead relied only on the application's self-reported version number.
