FreeBSD : routinator -- Possible path traversal when storing RRDP responses (ea9d1fd2-5d24-11ee-8507-b42e991fc52e)

medium Nessus Plugin ID 181924

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 ea9d1fd2-5d24-11ee-8507-b42e991fc52e advisory.

 - NLnet Labs' Routinator 0.9.0 up to and including 0.12.1 contains a possible path traversal vulnerability in the optional, off-by-default keep-rrdp-responses feature that allows users to store the content of responses received for RRDP requests. The location of these stored responses is constructed from the URL of the request. Due to insufficient sanitation of the URL, it is possible for an attacker to craft a URL that results in the response being stored outside of the directory specified for it. (CVE-2023-39916)

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.
