New! Vulnerability Priority Rating (VPR)
Tenable calculates a dynamic VPR for every vulnerability. VPR combines vulnerability information with threat intelligence and machine learning algorithms to predict which vulnerabilities are most likely to be exploited in attacks. Read more about what VPR is and how it's different from CVSS.

Synopsis
The remote host is affected by multiple vulnerabilities.
Description
The remote host is running a version of NSM (Network and Security Manager) Server that is prior to 2012.2R9. It is, therefore, affected by multiple vulnerabilities in the bundled version of Apache HTTP Server :
- A flaw exists due to improper escaping of filenames in 406 and 300 HTTP responses. A remote attacker can exploit this, by uploading a file with a specially crafted name, to inject arbitrary HTTP headers or conduct cross-site scripting attacks. (CVE-2008-0456)
- Multiple cross-site scripting vulnerabilities exist in the mod_negotiation module due to improper sanitization of input passed via filenames. An attacker can exploit this to execute arbitrary script code in a user's browser. (CVE-2012-2687)
- Multiple cross-site scripting vulnerabilities exist in the mod_info, mod_status, mod_imagemap, mod_ldap, and mod_proxy_ftp modules due to improper validation of input passed via the URL or hostnames. An attacker can exploit this to execute arbitrary script code in a user's browser. (CVE-2012-3499)
- A cross-site scripting vulnerability exists in the mod_proxy_balancer module due to improper validation of input passed via the URL or hostnames. An attacker can exploit this to execute arbitrary script code in a user's browser. (CVE-2012-4558)
- A flaw exists in the do_rewritelog() function due to improper sanitization of escape sequences written to log files. A remote attacker can exploit this, via a specially crafted HTTP request, to execute arbitrary commands. (CVE-2013-1862)
- A denial of service vulnerability exists in mod_dav.c due to improper validation to determine if DAV is enabled for a URI. A remote attacker can exploit this, via a specially crafted MERGE request, to cause a segmentation fault, resulting in a denial of service condition. (CVE-2013-1896)
- A denial of service vulnerability exists in the dav_xml_get_cdata() function due to improper removal of whitespace characters from CDATA sections. A remote attacker can exploit this, via a specially crafted DAV WRITE request, to cause a daemon crash, resulting in a denial of service condition. (CVE-2013-6438)
- A flaw exists in log_cookie() function due to the logging of cookies with an unassigned value. A remote attacker can exploit this, via a specially crafted request, to cause a segmentation fault, resulting in a denial of service condition. (CVE-2014-0098)
- A flaw exists in the deflate_in_filter() function when request body decompression is configured. A remote attacker can exploit this, via a specially crafted request, to exhaust available memory and CPU resources, resulting in a denial of service condition.
(CVE-2014-0118)
- A race condition exists in the mod_status module due to improper validation of user-supplied input when handling the scoreboard. A remote attacker can exploit this, via a crafted request, to cause a heap-based buffer overflow, resulting in a denial of service condition or the execution of arbitrary code. (CVE-2014-0226)
- A flaw exists in the mod_cgid module due to the lack of a timeout mechanism. A remote attacker can exploit this, via a request to a CGI script that does not read from its stdin file descriptor, to cause a denial of service condition. (CVE-2014-0231)
Solution
Upgrade to Juniper NSM version 2012.2R9 or later. Alternatively, apply Upgrade Package v4.
