  - bsc#1176031 CVE-2020-24553

  - go#41164 net/http/cgi,net/http/fcgi: Cross-Site     Scripting (XSS) when Content-Type is not specified

According to the version of the golang packages installed, the EulerOS installation on the remote host is affected by the following vulnerability :

  - Go before 1.14.8 and 1.15.x before 1.15.1 allows XSS     because text/html is the default for CGI/FCGI handlers     that lack a Content-Type header.(CVE-2020-24553)

The Go project reports :

When a Handler does not explicitly set the Content-Type header, both CGI implementations default to 'text/html'. If an attacker can make a server generate content under their control (e.g. a JSON containing user data or an uploaded image file) this might be mistakenly returned by the server as 'text/html'. If a victim visits such a page they could get the attacker's code executed in the context of the server origin.

An update of the go package has been released.

According to the versions of the golang packages installed, the EulerOS installation on the remote host is affected by the following vulnerabilities :

  - Some HTTP/2 implementations are vulnerable to ping     floods, potentially leading to a denial of service. The     attacker sends continual pings to an HTTP/2 peer,     causing the peer to build an internal queue of     responses. Depending on how efficiently this data is     queued, this can consume excess CPU, memory, or     both.(CVE-2019-9512)

  - Some HTTP/2 implementations are vulnerable to a reset     flood, potentially leading to a denial of service. The     attacker opens a number of streams and sends an invalid     request over each stream that should solicit a stream     of RST_STREAM frames from the peer. Depending on how     the peer queues the RST_STREAM frames, this can consume     excess memory, CPU, or both.(CVE-2019-9514)

  - Go before 1.13.15 and 14.x before 1.14.7 can have an     infinite read loop in ReadUvarint and ReadVarint in     encoding/binary via invalid inputs.(CVE-2020-16845)

  - Go before 1.14.8 and 1.15.x before 1.15.1 allows XSS     because text/html is the default for CGI/FCGI handlers     that lack a Content-Type header.(CVE-2020-24553)

The remote Alibaba Cloud Linux 3 host has packages installed that are affected by multiple vulnerabilities as referenced in the ALINUX3-SA-2021:0069 advisory.

    Package updates are available for Alibaba Cloud Linux 3 that fix the following vulnerabilities:

    CVE-2019-16276:
    Go before 1.12.10 and 1.13.x before 1.13.1 allow HTTP Request Smuggling.

    CVE-2019-17596:
    Go before 1.12.11 and 1.3.x before 1.13.2 can panic upon an attempt to process network traffic containing     an invalid DSA public key. There are several attack scenarios, such as traffic from a client to a server     that verifies client certificates.

    CVE-2019-6486:
    Go before 1.10.8 and 1.11.x before 1.11.5 mishandles P-521 and P-384 elliptic curves, which allows     attackers to cause a denial of service (CPU consumption) or possibly conduct ECDH private key recovery     attacks.

    CVE-2019-9512:
    Some HTTP/2 implementations are vulnerable to ping floods, potentially leading to a denial of service. The     attacker sends continual pings to an HTTP/2 peer, causing the peer to build an internal queue of     responses. Depending on how efficiently this data is queued, this can consume excess CPU, memory, or both.

    CVE-2019-9741:
    An issue was discovered in net/http in Go 1.11.5. CRLF injection is possible if the attacker controls a     url parameter, as demonstrated by the second argument to http.NewRequest with \r\n followed by an HTTP     header or a Redis command.

    CVE-2020-15586:
    Go before 1.13.13 and 1.14.x before 1.14.5 has a data race in some net/http servers, as demonstrated by     the httputil.ReverseProxy Handler, because it reads a request body and writes a response at the same time.

    CVE-2020-16845:
    Go before 1.13.15 and 14.x before 1.14.7 can have an infinite read loop in ReadUvarint and ReadVarint in     encoding/binary via invalid inputs.

    CVE-2020-24553:
    Go before 1.14.8 and 1.15.x before 1.15.1 allows XSS because text/html is the default for CGI/FCGI     handlers that lack a Content-Type header.

    CVE-2021-29923:
    Go before 1.17 does not properly consider extraneous zero characters at the beginning of an IP address     octet, which (in some situations) allows attackers to bypass access control that is based on IP addresses,     because of unexpected octal interpretation. This affects net.ParseIP and net.ParseCIDR.

The Linux/Unix host has one or more packages installed that are impacted by a vulnerability without a vendor supplied patch available.

  - Go before 1.14.8 and 1.15.x before 1.15.1 allows XSS because text/html is the default for CGI/FCGI     handlers that lack a Content-Type header. (CVE-2020-24553)

Note that Nessus relies on the presence of the package as reported by the vendor.
