medium Nessus Plugin ID 242747
Synopsis
The remote NewStart CGSL host is affected by a vulnerability.Description
The remote NewStart CGSL host, running version MAIN 7.02, has python-requests packages installed that are affected by a vulnerability:- Requests is a HTTP library. Prior to 2.32.0, when making requests through a Requests `Session`, if the first request is made with `verify=False` to disable cert verification, all subsequent requests to the same host will continue to ignore cert verification regardless of changes to the value of `verify`. This behavior will continue for the lifecycle of the connection in the connection pool. This vulnerability is fixed in 2.32.0. (CVE-2024-35195)
Note that Nessus has not tested for these issues but has instead relied only on the application's self-reported version number.
