Siemens SIMATIC S7-1500 Sensitive Cookie Without 'HttpOnly' Flag (CVE-2025-38477)

medium Tenable OT Security Plugin ID 505231

Synopsis

The remote OT asset is affected by a vulnerability.

Description

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
net/sched: sch_qfq: Fix race condition on qfq_aggregate A race condition can occur when 'agg' is modified in qfq_change_agg (called during qfq_enqueue) while other threads access it concurrently. For example, qfq_dump_class may trigger a NULL dereference, and qfq_delete_class may cause a use-after-free. This patch addresses the issue by: 1. Moved qfq_destroy_class into the critical section.
2. Added sch_tree_lock protection to qfq_dump_class and qfq_dump_class_stats.

This plugin only works with Tenable.ot.
