The remote Ubuntu 16.04 ESM host has packages installed that are affected by multiple vulnerabilities as referenced in the USN-5090-2 advisory.

    USN-5090-1 fixed several vulnerabilities in Apache. This update provides the corresponding update for     Ubuntu 14.04 ESM and Ubuntu 16.04 ESM.



Tenable has extracted the preceding description block directly from the Ubuntu security advisory.

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

The remote SUSE Linux SLED12 / SLES12 / SLES_SAP12 host has packages installed that are affected by multiple vulnerabilities as referenced in the SUSE-SU-2021:3299-1 advisory.

  - Malformed requests may cause the server to dereference a NULL pointer. This issue affects Apache HTTP     Server 2.4.48 and earlier. (CVE-2021-34798)

  - ap_escape_quotes() may write beyond the end of a buffer when given malicious input. No included modules     pass untrusted data to these functions, but third-party / external modules may. This issue affects Apache     HTTP Server 2.4.48 and earlier. (CVE-2021-39275)

  - A crafted request uri-path can cause mod_proxy to forward the request to an origin server choosen by the     remote user. This issue affects Apache HTTP Server 2.4.48 and earlier. (CVE-2021-40438)

The remote SUSE Linux SUSE15 host has packages installed that are affected by multiple vulnerabilities as referenced in the openSUSE-SU-2021:1438-1 advisory.

  - Malformed requests may cause the server to dereference a NULL pointer. This issue affects Apache HTTP     Server 2.4.48 and earlier. (CVE-2021-34798)

  - A carefully crafted request uri-path can cause mod_proxy_uwsgi to read above the allocated memory and     crash (DoS). This issue affects Apache HTTP Server versions 2.4.30 to 2.4.48 (inclusive). (CVE-2021-36160)

  - ap_escape_quotes() may write beyond the end of a buffer when given malicious input. No included modules     pass untrusted data to these functions, but third-party / external modules may. This issue affects Apache     HTTP Server 2.4.48 and earlier. (CVE-2021-39275)

  - A crafted request uri-path can cause mod_proxy to forward the request to an origin server choosen by the     remote user. This issue affects Apache HTTP Server 2.4.48 and earlier. (CVE-2021-40438)

The version of AOS installed on the remote host is prior to 5.20.4. It is, therefore, affected by multiple vulnerabilities as referenced in the NXSA-AOS-5.20.4 advisory.

  - In Expat (aka libexpat) before 2.4.5, there is an integer overflow in storeRawNames. (CVE-2022-25315)

  - CVE-2020-9493 identified a deserialization issue that was present in Apache Chainsaw. Prior to Chainsaw     V2.0 Chainsaw was a component of Apache Log4j 1.2.x where the same issue exists. (CVE-2022-23307)

  - NSS (Network Security Services) versions prior to 3.73 or 3.68.1 ESR are vulnerable to a heap overflow     when handling DER-encoded DSA or RSA-PSS signatures. Applications using NSS for handling signatures     encoded within CMS, S/MIME, PKCS \#7, or PKCS \#12 are likely to be impacted. Applications using NSS for     certificate validation or other TLS, X.509, OCSP or CRL functionality may be impacted, depending on how     they configure NSS. *Note: This vulnerability does NOT impact Mozilla Firefox.* However, email clients and     PDF viewers that use NSS for signature verification, such as Thunderbird, LibreOffice, Evolution and     Evince are believed to be impacted. This vulnerability affects NSS < 3.73 and NSS < 3.68.1.
    (CVE-2021-43527)

  - AIDE before 0.17.4 allows local users to obtain root privileges via crafted file metadata (such as XFS     extended attributes or tmpfs ACLs), because of a heap-based buffer overflow. (CVE-2021-45417)

  - It was found that the fix to address CVE-2021-44228 in Apache Log4j 2.15.0 was incomplete in certain non-     default configurations. This could allows attackers with control over Thread Context Map (MDC) input data     when the logging configuration uses a non-default Pattern Layout with either a Context Lookup (for     example, $${ctx:loginId}) or a Thread Context Map pattern (%X, %mdc, or %MDC) to craft malicious input     data using a JNDI Lookup pattern resulting in an information leak and remote code execution in some     environments and local code execution in all environments. Log4j 2.16.0 (Java 8) and 2.12.2 (Java 7) fix     this issue by removing support for message lookup patterns and disabling JNDI functionality by default.
