The remote SUSE Linux SLES15 / SLES_SAP15 / openSUSE 15 host has packages installed that are affected by multiple vulnerabilities as referenced in the SUSE-SU-2024:0784-1 advisory.

  - xmlparse.c in Expat (aka libexpat) before 2.4.5 allows attackers to insert namespace-separator characters     into namespace URIs. (CVE-2022-25236)

  - 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)

  - An issue was discovered in Python before 3.8.18, 3.9.x before 3.9.18, 3.10.x before 3.10.13, and 3.11.x     before 3.11.5. It primarily affects servers (such as HTTP servers) that use TLS client authentication. If     a TLS server-side socket is created, receives data into the socket buffer, and then is closed quickly,     there is a brief window where the SSLSocket instance will detect the socket as not connected and won't     initiate a handshake, but buffered data will still be readable from the socket buffer. This data will not     be authenticated if the server-side TLS peer is expecting client certificate authentication, and is     indistinguishable from valid TLS stream data. Data is limited in size to the amount that will fit in the     buffer. (The TLS connection cannot directly be used for data exfiltration because the vulnerable code path     requires that the connection be closed on initialization of the SSLSocket.) (CVE-2023-40217)

The remote SUSE Linux SLES15 / SLES_SAP15 host has packages installed that are affected by multiple vulnerabilities as referenced in the SUSE-SU-2024:0782-2 advisory.

  - xmlparse.c in Expat (aka libexpat) before 2.4.5 allows attackers to insert namespace-separator characters     into namespace URIs. (CVE-2022-25236)

  - 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)

  - An issue was found in the CPython `tempfile.TemporaryDirectory` class affecting versions 3.12.1, 3.11.7,     3.10.13, 3.9.18, and 3.8.18 and prior. The tempfile.TemporaryDirectory class would dereference symlinks     during cleanup of permissions-related errors. This means users which can run privileged programs are     potentially able to modify permissions of files referenced by symlinks in some circumstances.

The version of Oracle HTTP Server installed on the remote host are affected by multiple vulnerabilities as referenced in the Jan 2023 CPU advisory.

  - Vulnerability in the Oracle HTTP Server product of Oracle Fusion Middleware (component: Centralized Thirdparty     Jars (Expat)). The supported version that is affected is 12.2.1.4.0. Easily exploitable vulnerability allows     unauthenticated attacker with network access via HTTP to compromise Oracle HTTP Server. Successful attacks of     this vulnerability can result in takeover of Oracle HTTP Server. (CVE-2022-25236)

  - Vulnerability in the Oracle HTTP Server product of Oracle Fusion Middleware (component: SSL Module (Apache HTTP     Server)). The supported version that is affected is 12.2.1.4.0. Easily exploitable vulnerability allows     unauthenticated attacker with network access via HTTPS to compromise Oracle HTTP Server. Successful attacks of     this vulnerability can result in takeover of Oracle HTTP Server. (CVE-2022-31813)     

  - Vulnerability in the Oracle HTTP Server product of Oracle Fusion Middleware (component: SSL Module (OpenSSL)).     The supported version that is affected is 12.2.1.4.0. Easily exploitable vulnerability allows unauthenticated     attacker with network access via HTTPS to compromise Oracle HTTP Server. Successful attacks of this vulnerability     can result in takeover of Oracle HTTP Server. (CVE-2022-2274)

The remote NewStart CGSL host, running version MAIN 6.02, has firefox packages installed that are affected by multiple vulnerabilities:

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

  - It was possible to construct specific XSLT markup that would be able to bypass an iframe sandbox. This     vulnerability affects Firefox ESR < 91.5, Firefox < 96, and Thunderbird < 91.5. (CVE-2021-4140)

  - crossbeam-deque is a package of work-stealing deques for building task schedulers when programming in     Rust. In versions prior to 0.7.4 and 0.8.0, the result of the race condition is that one or more tasks in     the worker queue can be popped twice instead of other tasks that are forgotten and never popped. If tasks     are allocated on the heap, this can cause double free and a memory leak. If not, this still can cause a     logical bug. Crates using `Stealer::steal`, `Stealer::steal_batch`, or `Stealer::steal_batch_and_pop` are     affected by this issue. This has been fixed in crossbeam-deque 0.8.1 and 0.7.4. (CVE-2021-32810)

  - Mozilla developers reported memory safety bugs present in Firefox 91 and Firefox ESR 78.13. Some of these     bugs showed evidence of memory corruption and we presume that with enough effort some of these could have     been exploited to run arbitrary code. This vulnerability affects Firefox ESR < 78.14, Thunderbird < 78.14,     and Firefox < 92. (CVE-2021-38493)

  - During operations on MessageTasks, a task may have been removed while it was still scheduled, resulting in     memory corruption and a potentially exploitable crash. This vulnerability affects Thunderbird < 78.15,     Thunderbird < 91.2, Firefox ESR < 91.2, Firefox ESR < 78.15, and Firefox < 93. (CVE-2021-38496)

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

xmlparse.c in Expat (aka libexpat) before 2.4.5 allows attackers to insert namespace-separator characters into namespace URIs.
