FreeBSD : routinator -- multiple vulnerabilities (11982747-544c-11ee-ac3e-a04a5edf46d9)

medium Nessus Plugin ID 181523

Language:

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 a vulnerability as referenced in the 11982747-544c-11ee-ac3e-a04a5edf46d9 advisory.

NLnet Labs report:
This release fixes two issues in Routinator that can be exploited remotely by rogue RPKI CAs and repositories. We therefore advise all users of Routinator to upgrade to this release at their earliest convenience.
The first issue, CVE-2022-39915, can lead to Routinator crashing when trying to decode certain illegal RPKI objects.
The second issue, CVE-2022-39916, only affects users that have the rrdp-keep-responses option enabled which allows storing all received RRDP responses on disk. Because the file name for these responses is derived from the URI and the path wasn't checked properly, a RRDP URI could be constructed that results in the response stored outside the directory, possibly overwriting existing files.

Tenable has extracted the preceding description block directly from the FreeBSD 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 packages.
