    Package        : curl     Version        : 7.64.0-4+deb10u6     CVE ID         : CVE-2023-27533 CVE-2023-27535 CVE-2023-27536 CVE-2023-27538

    Several security vulnerabilities have been found in cURL, an easy-to-use     client-side URL transfer library.

    CVE-2023-27533

        A vulnerability in input validation exists in curl during         communication using the TELNET protocol may allow an attacker to pass on         maliciously crafted user name and telnet options during server         negotiation. The lack of proper input scrubbing allows an attacker to send         content or perform option negotiation without the application's intent.
        This vulnerability could be exploited if an application allows user input,         thereby enabling attackers to execute arbitrary code on the system.

    CVE-2023-27535

        An authentication bypass vulnerability exists in libcurl in the FTP         connection reuse feature that can result in wrong credentials being used         during subsequent transfers. Previously created connections are kept in a         connection pool for reuse if they match the current setup. However, certain         FTP settings such as CURLOPT_FTP_ACCOUNT, CURLOPT_FTP_ALTERNATIVE_TO_USER,         CURLOPT_FTP_SSL_CCC, and CURLOPT_USE_SSL were not included in the         configuration match checks, causing them to match too easily. This could         lead to libcurl using the wrong credentials when performing a transfer,         potentially allowing unauthorized access to sensitive information.

    CVE-2023-27536

        An authentication bypass vulnerability exists in libcurl in the         connection reuse feature which can reuse previously established connections         with incorrect user permissions due to a failure to check for changes in         the CURLOPT_GSSAPI_DELEGATION option. This vulnerability affects         krb5/kerberos/negotiate/GSSAPI transfers and could potentially result in         unauthorized access to sensitive information. The safest option is to not         reuse connections if the CURLOPT_GSSAPI_DELEGATION option has been changed.

    CVE-2023-27538

        An authentication bypass vulnerability exists in libcurl where it         reuses a previously established SSH connection despite the fact that an SSH         option was modified, which should have prevented reuse. libcurl maintains a         pool of previously used connections to reuse them for subsequent transfers         if the configurations match. However, two SSH settings were omitted from         the configuration check, allowing them to match easily, potentially leading         to the reuse of an inappropriate connection.

    For Debian 10 buster, these problems have been fixed in version     7.64.0-4+deb10u6.

    We recommend that you upgrade your curl packages.

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

  - A vulnerability in input validation exists in curl <8.0 during communication using the TELNET protocol may     allow an attacker to pass on maliciously crafted user name and 'telnet options' during server negotiation.
    The lack of proper input scrubbing allows an attacker to send content or perform option negotiation     without the application's intent. This vulnerability could be exploited if an application allows user     input, thereby enabling attackers to execute arbitrary code on the system. (CVE-2023-27533)

  - A path traversal vulnerability exists in curl <8.0.0 SFTP implementation causes the tilde (~) character to     be wrongly replaced when used as a prefix in the first path element, in addition to its intended use as     the first element to indicate a path relative to the user's home directory. Attackers can exploit this     flaw to bypass filtering or execute arbitrary code by crafting a path like /~2/foo while accessing a     server with a specific user. (CVE-2023-27534)

  - An authentication bypass vulnerability exists in libcurl <8.0.0 in the FTP connection reuse feature that     can result in wrong credentials being used during subsequent transfers. Previously created connections are     kept in a connection pool for reuse if they match the current setup. However, certain FTP settings such as     CURLOPT_FTP_ACCOUNT, CURLOPT_FTP_ALTERNATIVE_TO_USER, CURLOPT_FTP_SSL_CCC, and CURLOPT_USE_SSL were not     included in the configuration match checks, causing them to match too easily. This could lead to libcurl     using the wrong credentials when performing a transfer, potentially allowing unauthorized access to     sensitive information. (CVE-2023-27535)

  - An authentication bypass vulnerability exists libcurl <8.0.0 in the connection reuse feature which can     reuse previously established connections with incorrect user permissions due to a failure to check for     changes in the CURLOPT_GSSAPI_DELEGATION option. This vulnerability affects krb5/kerberos/negotiate/GSSAPI     transfers and could potentially result in unauthorized access to sensitive information. The safest option     is to not reuse connections if the CURLOPT_GSSAPI_DELEGATION option has been changed. (CVE-2023-27536)

  - An authentication bypass vulnerability exists in libcurl prior to v8.0.0 where it reuses a previously     established SSH connection despite the fact that an SSH option was modified, which should have prevented     reuse. libcurl maintains a pool of previously used connections to reuse them for subsequent transfers if     the configurations match. However, two SSH settings were omitted from the configuration check, allowing     them to match easily, potentially leading to the reuse of an inappropriate connection. (CVE-2023-27538)

The version of Siemens SINEC NMS installed on the remote host is prior to 2.0.1.0. It is, therefore, affected by multiple vulnerabilities as referenced in the SSA-943925 advisory.

  - coreruleset (aka OWASP ModSecurity Core Rule Set) through 3.3.4 does not detect multiple Content-Type     request headers on some platforms. This might allow attackers to bypass a WAF with a crafted payload,     aka Content-Type confusion between the WAF and the backend application. This occurs when the web     application relies on only the last Content-Type header. Other platforms may reject the additional     Content-Type header or merge conflicting headers, leading to detection as a malformed header.
    (CVE-2023-38199)

  - Some mod_proxy configurations on Apache HTTP Server versions 2.4.0 through 2.4.55 allow a HTTP Request     Smuggling attack. Configurations are affected when mod_proxy is enabled along with some form of     RewriteRule or ProxyPassMatch in which a non-specific pattern matches some portion of the user-supplied     request-target (URL) data and is then re-inserted into the proxied request-target using variable     substitution. For example, something like: RewriteEngine on RewriteRule ^/here/(.*)     http://example.com:8080/elsewhere?$1; [P] ProxyPassReverse /here/ http://example.com:8080/ Request     splitting/smuggling could result in bypass of access controls in the proxy server, proxying unintended     URLs to existing origin servers, and cache poisoning. Users are recommended to update to at least version     2.4.56 of Apache HTTP Server. (CVE-2023-25690)

  - The use of `Module._load()` can bypass the policy mechanism and require modules outside of the policy.json     definition for a given module. This vulnerability affects all users using the experimental policy     mechanism in all active release lines: 16.x, 18.x and, 20.x. Please note that at the time this CVE was     issued, the policy is an experimental feature of Node.js. (CVE-2023-32002)

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 Splunk installed on the remote host is prior to tested version. It is, therefore, affected by a vulnerability as referenced in the SVD-2023-0808 advisory.

  - The go command may execute arbitrary code at build time when using cgo. This may occur when running go     get on a malicious module, or when running any other command which builds untrusted code. This is can by     triggered by linker flags, specified via a #cgo LDFLAGS directive. Flags containing embedded spaces are     mishandled, allowing disallowed flags to be smuggled through the LDFLAGS sanitization by including them in     the argument of another flag. This only affects usage of the gccgo compiler. (CVE-2023-29405)

  - When curl < 7.84.0 saves cookies, alt-svc and hsts data to local files, it makes the operation atomic by     finalizing the operation with a rename from a temporary name to the final target file name.In that rename     operation, it might accidentally *widen* the permissions for the target file, leaving the updated file     accessible to more users than intended. (CVE-2022-32207)

  - decode-uri-component 0.2.0 is vulnerable to Improper Input Validation resulting in DoS. (CVE-2022-38900)

  - The got package before 12.1.0 (also fixed in 11.8.5) for Node.js allows a redirect to a UNIX socket.
    (CVE-2022-33987)

  - Prototype pollution vulnerability in function parseQuery in parseQuery.js in webpack loader-utils via the     name variable in parseQuery.js. This affects all versions prior to 1.4.1 and 2.0.3. (CVE-2022-37601)

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