Synopsis

The remote TencentOS Server 3 host is missing one or more security updates.

Description

The version of Tencent Linux installed on the remote TencentOS Server 3 host is prior to tested version. It is, therefore, affected by a vulnerability as referenced in the TSSA-2023:0075 advisory.

Package updates are available for TencentOS Server 3 that fix the following vulnerabilities:

CVE-2022-2553:
A flaw was found in booth in the way it handles the authfile directive in configuration files, which causes authentication to be skipped between nodes. As a result, an attacker-controlled node that does not have the correct authentication key does not prevent communication with other nodes in the cluster.

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

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