The remote RockyLinux 8 host has packages installed that are affected by a vulnerability as referenced in the RLSA-2025:0083 advisory.

    * cups: libppd: remote command injection via attacker controlled data in PPD file (CVE-2024-47175)

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

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 7.0.1. It is, therefore, affected by multiple vulnerabilities as referenced in the NXSA-AOS-7.0.1 advisory.

  - BZ2_decompress in decompress.c in bzip2 through 1.0.6 has an out-of-bounds write when there are many     selectors. (CVE-2019-12900)

  - A vulnerability was found in PAM. The secret information is stored in memory, where the attacker can     trigger the victim program to execute by sending characters to its standard input (stdin). As this occurs,     the attacker can train the branch predictor to execute an ROP chain speculatively. This flaw could result     in leaked passwords, such as those found in /etc/shadow while performing authentications. (CVE-2024-10041)

  - A flaw was found in pam_access, where certain rules in its configuration file are mistakenly treated as     hostnames. This vulnerability allows attackers to trick the system by pretending to be a trusted hostname,     gaining unauthorized access. This issue poses a risk for systems that rely on this feature to control who     can access certain services or terminals. (CVE-2024-10963)

  - Vulnerability in the Oracle Java SE, Oracle GraalVM for JDK, Oracle GraalVM Enterprise Edition product of     Oracle Java SE (component: Hotspot). Supported versions that are affected are Oracle Java SE: 8u411,     8u411-perf, 11.0.23, 17.0.11, 21.0.3, 22.0.1; Oracle GraalVM for JDK: 17.0.11, 21.0.3, 22.0.1; Oracle     GraalVM Enterprise Edition: 20.3.14 and 21.3.10. Difficult to exploit vulnerability allows unauthenticated     attacker with network access via multiple protocols to compromise Oracle Java SE, Oracle GraalVM for JDK,     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 for JDK, Oracle GraalVM     Enterprise Edition accessible data. Note: This vulnerability can be exploited by using APIs in the     specified Component, e.g., through a web service which supplies data to the APIs. This vulnerability also     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. (CVE-2024-21131)

Difficult to exploit vulnerability allows unauthenticated     attacker with network access via multiple protocols to compromise Oracle Java SE, Oracle GraalVM for JDK,     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 for JDK,     Oracle GraalVM Enterprise Edition. Note: This vulnerability can be exploited by using APIs in the     specified Component, e.g., through a web service which supplies data to the APIs.

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

  - CUPS is a standards-based, open-source printing system, and `libppd` can be used for legacy PPD file     support. The `libppd` function `ppdCreatePPDFromIPP2` does not sanitize IPP attributes when creating the     PPD buffer. When used in combination with other functions such as `cfGetPrinterAttributes5`, can result in     user controlled input and ultimately code execution via Foomatic. This vulnerability can be part of an     exploit chain leading to remote code execution (RCE), as described in CVE-2024-47176. (CVE-2024-47175)

  - libppd <= 2.1b1 ppdCreatePPDFromIPP2 does not validate or sanitize the IPP attributes when writing them to     a temporary PPD file, allowing the injection of attacker controlled data in the resulting PPD.
    (CVE-2024-47175)

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