The remote Redhat Enterprise Linux 8 host has a package installed that is affected by multiple vulnerabilities as referenced in the RHSA-2022:0540 advisory.

    The redhat-virtualization-host packages provide the Red Hat Virtualization Host. These packages include     redhat-release-virtualization-host, ovirt-node, and rhev-hypervisor. Red Hat Virtualization Hosts (RHVH)     are installed using a special build of Red Hat Enterprise Linux with only the packages required to host     virtual machines. RHVH features a Cockpit user interface for monitoring the host's resources and     performing administrative tasks.

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

The version of AHV installed on the remote host is prior to 20201105.30281. It is, therefore, affected by multiple vulnerabilities as referenced in the NXSA-AHV-20201105.30281 advisory.

  - In Cyrus SASL 2.1.17 through 2.1.27 before 2.1.28, plugins/sql.c does not escape the password for a SQL     INSERT or UPDATE statement. (CVE-2022-24407)

  - 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)

  - A flaw was found in OpenLDAP. This flaw allows an attacker who can send a malicious packet to be processed     by OpenLDAP's slapd server, to trigger an assertion failure. The highest threat from this vulnerability is     to system availability. (CVE-2020-25709)

  - A flaw was found in OpenLDAP in versions before 2.4.56. This flaw allows an attacker who sends a malicious     packet processed by OpenLDAP to force a failed assertion in csnNormalize23(). The highest threat from this     vulnerability is to system availability. (CVE-2020-25710)

  - A local privilege escalation vulnerability was found on polkit's pkexec utility. The pkexec application is     a setuid tool designed to allow unprivileged users to run commands as privileged users according     predefined policies. The current version of pkexec doesn't handle the calling parameters count correctly     and ends trying to execute environment variables as commands. An attacker can leverage this by crafting     environment variables in such a way it'll induce pkexec to execute arbitrary code. When successfully     executed the attack can cause a local privilege escalation given unprivileged users administrative rights     on the target machine. (CVE-2021-4034)

Note that Nessus has not tested for these issues 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 5.20.3.5. It is, therefore, affected by multiple vulnerabilities as referenced in the NXSA-AOS-5.20.3.5 advisory.

  - 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)

  - By design, the JDBCAppender in Log4j 1.2.x accepts an SQL statement as a configuration parameter where the     values to be inserted are converters from PatternLayout. The message converter, %m, is likely to always be     included. This allows attackers to manipulate the SQL by entering crafted strings into input fields or     headers of an application that are logged allowing unintended SQL queries to be executed. Note this issue     only affects Log4j 1.x when specifically configured to use the JDBCAppender, which is not the default.
    Beginning in version 2.0-beta8, the JDBCAppender was re-introduced with proper support for parameterized     SQL queries and further customization over the columns written to in logs. Apache Log4j 1.2 reached end of     life in August 2015. Users should upgrade to Log4j 2 as it addresses numerous other issues from the     previous versions. (CVE-2022-23305)

  - 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)

  - Vulnerability in the Oracle Java SE, Oracle GraalVM Enterprise Edition product of Oracle Java SE     (component: Serialization). Supported versions that are affected are Oracle Java SE: 7u321, 8u311,     11.0.13, 17.0.1; Oracle GraalVM Enterprise Edition: 20.3.4 and 21.3.0. Difficult to exploit vulnerability     allows unauthenticated attacker with network access via multiple protocols to compromise Oracle Java SE,     Oracle GraalVM Enterprise Edition. Successful attacks of this vulnerability can result in unauthorized     update, insert or delete access to some of Oracle 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 can also be exploited by     using APIs in the specified Component, e.g., through a web service which supplies data to the APIs.
    (CVE-2022-21248)

  - Vulnerability in the Oracle Java SE, Oracle GraalVM Enterprise Edition product of Oracle Java SE     (component: ImageIO). Supported versions that are affected are Oracle Java SE: 11.0.13, 17.0.1; Oracle     GraalVM Enterprise Edition: 20.3.4 and 21.3.0. Easily exploitable vulnerability allows unauthenticated     attacker with network access via multiple protocols to compromise Oracle Java SE, Oracle GraalVM     Enterprise Edition. Successful attacks of this vulnerability can result in unauthorized ability to cause a     partial denial of service (partial DOS) of Oracle Java SE, Oracle GraalVM Enterprise Edition. 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 can also be exploited by using     APIs in the specified Component, e.g., through a web service which supplies data to the APIs.
