critical Nessus Plugin ID 354087

Synopsis

The Rocky Linux host is missing one or more security updates.

Description

The Rocky Linux 8 host has packages installed that are affected by multiple vulnerabilities as referenced in the CIQ crlsa-2019_3335 advisory.

* numpy: crafted serialized object passed in numpy.load() in pickle python module allows arbitrary code execution (CVE-2019-6446)

* python: CRLF injection via the query part of the url passed to urlopen() (CVE-2019-9740)

* python: CRLF injection via the path part of the url passed to urlopen() (CVE-2019-9947)

* python: Undocumented local_file protocol allows remote attackers to bypass protection mechanisms (CVE-2019-9948)

* python-urllib3: CRLF injection due to not encoding the '\r\n' sequence leading to possible attack on internal service (CVE-2019-11236)

* python-urllib3: Certification mishandle when error should be thrown (CVE-2019-11324)

Tenable has extracted the preceding description block directly from the CIQ 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 packages based on the guidance in CIQ advisory crlsa-2019_3335.
