TencentOS Server 3: osbuild-composer (TSSA-2023:0081)

high Nessus Plugin ID 239877

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 multiple vulnerabilities as referenced in the TSSA-2023:0081 advisory.

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

CVE-2022-2879:
A flaw was found in the golang package, where Reader.Read does not set a limit on the maximum size of file headers. After fixing, Reader.Read limits the maximum size of header blocks to 1 MiB. This flaw allows a maliciously crafted archive to cause Read to allocate unbounded amounts of memory, potentially causing resource exhaustion or panic.
CVE-2022-2880:
A flaw was found in the golang package, where requests forwarded by reverse proxy include the raw query parameters from the inbound request, including unparseable parameters rejected by net/http. This issue could permit query parameter smuggling when a Go proxy forwards a parameter with an unparseable value.
After the fix, the reverse proxy sanitizes the query parameters in the forwarded query when the outbound request's form field is set after the reverse proxy. The director function returns, indicating that the proxy has parsed the query parameters. Proxies that do not parse query parameters continue to forward the original query parameters unchanged.
CVE-2022-27664:
A flaw was found in the golang package. In net/http in Go, attackers can cause a denial of service because an HTTP/2 connection can hang during closing if a fatal error preempts the shutdown.
CVE-2022-41715:
A flaw was found in the golang package, where programs that compile regular expressions from untrusted sources are vulnerable to memory exhaustion or a denial of service. The parsed regexp representation is linear in the input size. Still, in some cases, the constant factor can be as high as 40,000, making a relatively small regexp consume larger amounts of memory. After the fix, each regexp being parsed is limited to a 256 MB memory footprint. Regular expressions whose representation would use more space than that are rejected. Routine use of regular expressions is unaffected.
CVE-2022-41717:
A flaw was found in the net/http library of the golang package. This flaw allows an attacker to cause excessive memory growth in a Go server accepting HTTP/2 requests. HTTP/2 server connections contain a cache of HTTP header keys sent by the client. While the total number of entries in this cache is capped, an attacker sending very large keys can cause the server to allocate approximately 64 MiB per open connection.

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

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.
