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

The remote NewStart CGSL host, running version MAIN 7.02, has python3.11 packages installed that are affected by multiple vulnerabilities:

  - A vulnerability has been found in the CPython `venv` module and CLI where path names provided when     creating a virtual environment were not quoted properly, allowing the creator to inject commands into     virtual environment activation scripts (ie source venv/bin/activate). This means that attacker-     controlled virtual environments are able to run commands when the virtual environment is activated.
    Virtual environments which are not created by an attacker or which aren't activated before being used (ie     ./venv/bin/python) are not affected. (CVE-2024-9287)

  - A defect was discovered in the Python ssl module where there is a memory race condition with the     ssl.SSLContext methods cert_store_stats() and get_ca_certs(). The race condition can be triggered if     the methods are called at the same time as certificates are loaded into the SSLContext, such as during the     TLS handshake with a certificate directory configured. This issue is fixed in CPython 3.10.14, 3.11.9,     3.12.3, and 3.13.0a5. (CVE-2024-0397)

  - The ipaddress module contained incorrect information about whether certain IPv4 and IPv6 addresses were     designated as globally reachable or private. This affected the is_private and is_global properties of     the ipaddress.IPv4Address, ipaddress.IPv4Network, ipaddress.IPv6Address, and ipaddress.IPv6Network     classes, where values wouldn't be returned in accordance with the latest information from the IANA     Special-Purpose Address Registries. CPython 3.12.4 and 3.13.0a6 contain updated information from these     registries and thus have the intended behavior. (CVE-2024-4032)

  - There is a MEDIUM severity vulnerability affecting CPython. Regular expressions that allowed excessive     backtracking during tarfile.TarFile header parsing are vulnerable to ReDoS via specifically-crafted tar     archives. (CVE-2024-6232)

  - There is a LOW severity vulnerability affecting CPython, specifically the 'http.cookies' standard library     module. When parsing cookies that contained backslashes for quoted characters in the cookie value, the     parser would use an algorithm with quadratic complexity, resulting in excess CPU resources being used     while parsing the value. (CVE-2024-7592)

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

According to the versions of the python3 packages installed, the EulerOS Virtualization installation on the remote host is affected by the following vulnerabilities :

    There is a MEDIUM severity vulnerability affecting CPython.  The  socket module provides a pure-     Python fallback to the  socket.socketpair() function for platforms that dont support AF_UNIX,  such as     Windows. This pure-Python implementation uses AF_INET or  AF_INET6 to create a local connected pair of     sockets. The connection  between the two sockets was not verified before passing the two sockets  back to     the user, which leaves the server socket vulnerable to a  connection race from a malicious local peer.
    Platforms that support AF_UNIX such as Linux and macOS are not affected by this vulnerability. Versions     prior to CPython 3.5 are not affected due to the vulnerable API not being included.(CVE-2024-3219)

    There is a MEDIUM severity vulnerability affecting CPython.Regular expressions that allowed excessive     backtracking during tarfile.TarFile header parsing are vulnerable to ReDoS via specifically-crafted tar     archives.(CVE-2024-6232)

    There is a HIGH severity vulnerability affecting the CPython 'zipfile' module affecting 'zipfile.Path'.
    Note that the more common API 'zipfile.ZipFile' class is unaffected. When iterating over names of entries     in a zip archive (for example, methods of 'zipfile.Path' like 'namelist()', 'iterdir()', etc) the process     can be put into an infinite loop with a maliciously crafted zip archive. This defect applies when reading     only metadata or extracting the contents of the zip archive. Programs that are not handling user-     controlled zip archives are not affected.(CVE-2024-8088)

    There is a MEDIUM severity vulnerability affecting CPython.  The  email module didnt properly quote     newlines for email headers when  serializing an email message allowing for header injection when an email     is serialized.(CVE-2024-6923)

    There is a LOW severity vulnerability affecting CPython, specifically the 'http.cookies' standard library     module.   When parsing cookies that contained backslashes for quoted characters in the cookie value, the     parser would use an algorithm with quadratic complexity, resulting in excess CPU resources being used     while parsing the value.(CVE-2024-7592)

This issue is fixed in CPython     3.10.14, 3.11.9, 3.12.3, and 3.13.0a5.(CVE-2024-0397)

This affected the is_private and is_global     properties of the ipaddress.IPv4Address, ipaddress.IPv4Network, ipaddress.IPv6Address, and     ipaddress.IPv6Network classes, where values wouldnt be returned in accordance with the latest     information from the IANA Special-Purpose Address Registries.  CPython 3.12.4 and 3.13.0a6 contain updated     information from these registries and thus have the intended behavior.(CVE-2024-4032)

    The email module of Python through 3.11.3 incorrectly parses e-mail addresses that contain a special     character. The wrong portion of an RFC2822 header is identified as the value of the addr-spec. In some     applications, an attacker can bypass a protection mechanism in which application access is granted only     after verifying receipt of e-mail to a specific domain (e.g., only @company.example.com addresses may be     used for signup). This occurs in email/_parseaddr.py in recent versions of Python.(CVE-2023-27043)

    A vulnerability has been found in the CPython `venv` module and CLI where path names provided when     creating a virtual environment were not quoted properly, allowing the creator to inject commands into     virtual environment 'activation' scripts (ie 'source venv/bin/activate'). This means that attacker-     controlled virtual environments are able to run commands when the virtual environment is activated.
    Virtual environments which are not created by an attacker or which aren't activated before being used (ie     './venv/bin/python') are not affected.(CVE-2024-9287)
