Linux Distros Unpatched Vulnerability : CVE-2024-11234

high Nessus Plugin ID 227694

Language:

Synopsis

The Linux/Unix host has one or more packages installed with a vulnerability that the vendor indicates will not be patched.

Description

The Linux/Unix host has one or more packages installed that are impacted by a vulnerability without a vendor supplied patch available.

 - In PHP versions 8.1.* before 8.1.31, 8.2.* before 8.2.26, 8.3.* before 8.3.14, when using streams with configured proxy and request_fulluri option, the URI is not properly sanitized which can lead to HTTP request smuggling and allow the attacker to use the proxy to perform arbitrary HTTP requests originating from the server, thus potentially gaining access to resources not normally available to the external user.
 (CVE-2024-11234)

Note that Nessus relies on the presence of the package as reported by the vendor.

Solution

There is no known solution at this time.
