FreeBSD : go -- multiple vulnerabilities (beb36f39-4d74-11ee-985e-bff341e78d94)

critical Nessus Plugin ID 180583

Synopsis

The remote FreeBSD host is missing one or more security-related updates.

Description

The version of FreeBSD installed on the remote host is prior to tested version. It is, therefore, affected by multiple vulnerabilities as referenced in the beb36f39-4d74-11ee-985e-bff341e78d94 advisory.

- The Go project reports: cmd/go: go.mod toolchain directive allows arbitrary execution The go.mod toolchain directive, introduced in Go 1.21, could be leveraged to execute scripts and binaries relative to the root of the module when the go command was executed within the module. This applies to modules downloaded using the go command from the module proxy, as well as modules downloaded directly using VCS software. html/template: improper handling of HTML-like comments within script contexts The html/template package did not properly handle HMTL-like <!-- and --> comment tokens, nor hashbang #! comment tokens, in <script> contexts. This may cause the template parser to improperly interpret the contents of <script> contexts, causing actions to be improperly escaped. This could be leveraged to perform an XSS attack. html/template: improper handling of special tags within script contexts The html/template package did not apply the proper rules for handling occurrences of <script, <!--, and </script within JS literals in <script< contexts. This may cause the template parser to improperly consider script contexts to be terminated early, causing actions to be improperly escaped. This could be leveraged to perform an XSS attack. crypto/tls: panic when processing post-handshake message on QUIC connections Processing an incomplete post-handshake message for a QUIC connection caused a panic. (CVE-2023-39318, CVE-2023-39319, CVE-2023-39320, CVE-2023-39321, CVE-2023-39322)

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.
