The remote Redhat Enterprise Linux 7 host has packages installed that are affected by a vulnerability as referenced in the RHSA-2021:2147 advisory.

    GLib provides the core application building blocks for libraries and applications written in C. It     provides the core object system used in GNOME, the main loop implementation, and a large set of utility     functions for strings and common data structures.

    Security Fix(es):

    * glib: integer overflow in g_bytes_new function on 64-bit platforms due to an implicit cast from 64 bits     to 32 bits (CVE-2021-27219)

    For more details about the security issue(s), including the impact, a CVSS score, acknowledgments, and     other related information, refer to the CVE page(s) listed in the References section.

This update for glib2 fixes the following issues :

CVE-2021-27218: g_byte_array_new_take takes a gsize as length but stores in a guint, this patch will refuse if the length is larger than guint. (bsc#1182328)

CVE-2021-27219: g_memdup takes a guint as parameter and sometimes leads into an integer overflow, so add a g_memdup2 function which uses gsize to replace it. (bsc#1182362)

The remote Ubuntu 16.04 LTS / 18.04 LTS / 20.04 LTS host has packages installed that are affected by multiple vulnerabilities as referenced in the USN-4759-1 advisory.

    Krzesimir Nowak discovered that GLib incorrectly handled certain large buffers. A remote attacker could     use this issue to cause applications linked to GLib to crash, resulting in a denial of service, or     possibly execute arbitrary code. (CVE-2021-27218)

    Kevin Backhouse discovered that GLib incorrectly handled certain memory allocations. A remote attacker     could use this issue to cause applications linked to GLib to crash, resulting in a denial of service, or     possibly execute arbitrary code. (CVE-2021-27219)

The remote AlmaLinux 8 host has packages installed that are affected by multiple vulnerabilities as referenced in the ALSA-2021:4526 advisory.

  - An issue was discovered in GNOME GLib before 2.66.7 and 2.67.x before 2.67.4. If g_byte_array_new_take()     was called with a buffer of 4GB or more on a 64-bit platform, the length would be truncated modulo 2**32,     causing unintended length truncation. (CVE-2021-27218)

  - An issue was discovered in GNOME GLib before 2.66.6 and 2.67.x before 2.67.3. The function g_bytes_new has     an integer overflow on 64-bit platforms due to an implicit cast from 64 bits to 32 bits. The overflow     could potentially lead to memory corruption. (CVE-2021-27219)

Note that Nessus has not tested for this issue but has instead relied only on the application's self-reported version number.

The version of AOS installed on the remote host is prior to 5.20.2. It is, therefore, affected by multiple vulnerabilities as referenced in the NXSA-AOS-5.20.2 advisory.

  - A flaw was found in the Routing decision classifier in the Linux kernel's Traffic Control networking     subsystem in the way it handled changing of classification filters, leading to a use-after-free condition.
    This flaw allows unprivileged local users to escalate their privileges on the system. The highest threat     from this vulnerability is to confidentiality, integrity, as well as system availability. (CVE-2021-3715)

  - Apache Tomcat 10.0.0-M1 to 10.0.6, 9.0.0.M1 to 9.0.46 and 8.5.0 to 8.5.66 did not correctly parse the HTTP     transfer-encoding request header in some circumstances leading to the possibility to request smuggling     when used with a reverse proxy. Specifically: - Tomcat incorrectly ignored the transfer encoding header if     the client declared it would only accept an HTTP/1.0 response; - Tomcat honoured the identify encoding;
    and - Tomcat did not ensure that, if present, the chunked encoding was the final encoding.
    (CVE-2021-33037)

  - Vulnerability in the Java SE, Oracle GraalVM Enterprise Edition product of Oracle Java SE (component:
    Networking). Supported versions that are affected are Java SE: 7u301, 8u291, 11.0.11, 16.0.1; Oracle     GraalVM Enterprise Edition: 20.3.2 and 21.1.0. Difficult to exploit vulnerability allows unauthenticated     attacker with network access via multiple protocols to compromise Java SE, Oracle GraalVM Enterprise     Edition. Successful attacks require human interaction from a person other than the attacker. Successful     attacks of this vulnerability can result in unauthorized read access to a subset of Java SE, Oracle     GraalVM Enterprise Edition accessible data. Note: This vulnerability applies to Java deployments,     typically in clients running sandboxed Java Web Start applications or sandboxed Java applets, that load     and run untrusted code (e.g., code that comes from the internet) and rely on the Java sandbox for     security. This vulnerability does not apply to Java deployments, typically in servers, that load and run     only trusted code (e.g., code installed by an administrator). (CVE-2021-2341)
