high Nessus Plugin ID 258135

Synopsis

The remote SUSE host is missing one or more security updates.

Description

The remote SUSE Linux SLES15 / SLES_SAP15 / openSUSE 15 host has packages installed that are affected by multiple vulnerabilities as referenced in the SUSE-SU-2025:03024-1 advisory.

Updated to 9.0.108:

- CVE-2025-52520: Fixed integer overflow can lead to DoS for some unlikely configurations of multipart upload (bsc#1246388)
- CVE-2025-53506: Fixed uncontrolled resource HTTP/2 client consumption vulnerability (bsc#1246318)
- CVE-2025-52434: Fixed race condition on connection close when using the APR/Native connector leading to a JVM crash (bsc#1246389)

Other:

- Correct a regression in the fix for CVE-2025-49125 that prevented access to PreResources and PostResources when mounted below the web application root with a path that was terminated with a file separator.

Tenable has extracted the preceding description block directly from the SUSE 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
