high Nessus Plugin ID 329282

Synopsis

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

Description

The remote SUSE Linux SLES15 / SLES_SAP15 host has a package installed that is affected by multiple vulnerabilities as referenced in the SUSE-SU-2026:3208-1 advisory.

 - CVE-2026-50269: improper validation of user-controlled strings allows for CRLF injection in multipart headers (bsc#1268398).
 - CVE-2026-54273: no limit in the HTTP/1 pipelined request queue can lead to excessive resource consumption (bsc#1268543).
 - CVE-2026-54274: incomplete websocket frame payloads can bypass memory use limits and cause a DoS via excessive resource consumption (bsc#1268544).
 - CVE-2026-54275: `server_hostname` TLS SNI check bypass when an existing connection is reused (bsc#1268549).
 - CVE-2026-54277: `max_line_size` bypass when using the optimised C HTTP parser can lead to excessive resource consumption (bsc#1268556).
 - CVE-2026-54278: unread compressed request bodies can bypass `client_max_size` during cleanup and cause a DoS (bsc#1268559).
 - CVE-2026-54279: host-only cookies become domain cookies after `CookieJar` persistence (bsc#1268560).
 - CVE-2026-54280: payload resources are not closed correctly when a client disconnects in the middle of a write and can cause resource starvation (bsc#1268561).

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

Update the affected python3-aiohttp package.
