NewStart CGSL MAIN 6.06 : python3 Vulnerability (NS-SA-2025-0243)

high Nessus Plugin ID 323229

Synopsis

The remote NewStart CGSL host is affected by a vulnerability.

Description

The remote NewStart CGSL host, running version MAIN 6.06, has python3 packages installed that are affected by a vulnerability:

- The ipaddress module contained incorrect information about whether certain IPv4 and IPv6 addresses were designated as globally reachable or private. This affected the is_private and is_global properties of the ipaddress.IPv4Address, ipaddress.IPv4Network, ipaddress.IPv6Address, and ipaddress.IPv6Network classes, where values wouldn't be returned in accordance with the latest information from the IANA Special-Purpose Address Registries. CPython 3.12.4 and 3.13.0a6 contain updated information from these registries and thus have the intended behavior. (CVE-2024-4032)

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

Solution

Upgrade the vulnerable CGSL python3 packages. Note that updated packages may not be available yet. Please contact ZTE for more information.
