medium Nessus Plugin ID 312190

Synopsis

The remote Red Hat CoreOS host is missing one or more security updates for OpenShift Container Platform 4.13.z.

Description

The remote Red Hat Enterprise Linux CoreOS 4 host has packages installed that are affected by multiple vulnerabilities as referenced in the RHSA-2024:7941 advisory.

 - containers/image: digest type does not guarantee valid type (CVE-2024-3727)

 - webob: WebOb's location header normalization during redirect leads to open redirect (CVE-2024-42353)

 - openstack-ironic: Specially crafted image may allow authenticated users to gain access to potentially sensitive data (CVE-2024-44082)

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 RHCOS OpenShift Container Platform 4.13.z package based on the guidance in RHSA-2024:7941.
