The remote Alibaba Cloud Linux 3 host has packages installed that are affected by multiple vulnerabilities as referenced in the ALINUX3-SA-2024:0093 advisory.

    Package updates are available for Alibaba Cloud Linux 3 that fix the following vulnerabilities:

    CVE-2022-36763:
    EDK2 is susceptible to a vulnerability in the Tcg2MeasureGptTable() function, allowing a user to trigger a     heap buffer overflow via a local network. Successful exploitation of this vulnerability may result in a     compromise of confidentiality, integrity, and/or availability.

    CVE-2022-36764:
    EDK2 is susceptible to a vulnerability in the Tcg2MeasurePeImage() function, allowing a user to trigger a     heap buffer overflow via a local network. Successful exploitation of this vulnerability may result in a     compromise of confidentiality, integrity, and/or availability.

    CVE-2022-36765:
    EDK2 is susceptible to a vulnerability in the CreateHob() function, allowing a user to trigger a integer     overflow to buffer overflow via a local network. Successful exploitation of this vulnerability may result     in a compromise of confidentiality, integrity, and/or availability.

    CVE-2023-3446:
    Issue summary: Checking excessively long DH keys or parameters may be very slow.
    Impact summary: Applications that use the functions DH_check(), DH_check_ex()     or EVP_PKEY_param_check() to check a DH key or DH parameters may experience long     delays. Where the key or parameters that are being checked have been obtained     from an untrusted source this may lead to a Denial of Service.
    The function DH_check() performs various checks on DH parameters. One of those     checks confirms that the modulus ('p' parameter) is not too large. Trying to use     a very large modulus is slow and OpenSSL will not normally use a modulus which     is over 10,000 bits in length.
    However the DH_check() function checks numerous aspects of the key or parameters     that have been supplied. Some of those checks use the supplied modulus value     even if it has already been found to be too large.
    An application that calls DH_check() and supplies a key or parameters obtained     from an untrusted source could be vulernable to a Denial of Service attack.
    The function DH_check() is itself called by a number of other OpenSSL functions.
    An application calling any of those other functions may similarly be affected.
    The other functions affected by this are DH_check_ex() and     EVP_PKEY_param_check().
    Also vulnerable are the OpenSSL dhparam and pkeyparam command line applications     when using the '-check' option.
    The OpenSSL SSL/TLS implementation is not affected by this issue.
    The OpenSSL 3.0 and 3.1 FIPS providers are not affected by this issue.

    CVE-2023-45229:
    EDK2's Network Package is susceptible to an out-of-bounds read     vulnerability when processing the IA_NA or IA_TA option in a DHCPv6 Advertise message. This     vulnerability can be exploited by an attacker to gain unauthorized     access and potentially lead to a loss of Confidentiality.

    CVE-2023-45230:
    EDK2's Network Package is susceptible to a buffer overflow vulnerability via a long server ID option in     DHCPv6 client. This     vulnerability can be exploited by an attacker to gain unauthorized     access and potentially lead to a loss of Confidentiality, Integrity and/or Availability.

    CVE-2023-45231:
    EDK2's Network Package is susceptible to an out-of-bounds read     vulnerability when processing Neighbor Discovery Redirect message. This     vulnerability can be exploited by an attacker to gain unauthorized     access and potentially lead to a loss of Confidentiality.

    CVE-2023-45232:
    EDK2's Network Package is susceptible to an infinite loop vulnerability when parsing unknown options in     the Destination Options header of IPv6. This     vulnerability can be exploited by an attacker to gain unauthorized     access and potentially lead to a loss of Availability.

    CVE-2023-45233:
    EDK2's Network Package is susceptible to an infinite lop vulnerability when parsing a PadN option in the     Destination Options header of IPv6. This     vulnerability can be exploited by an attacker to gain unauthorized     access and potentially lead to a loss of Availability.

    CVE-2023-45234:
    EDK2's Network Package is susceptible to a buffer overflow vulnerability when processing DNS Servers     option from a DHCPv6 Advertise message. This     vulnerability can be exploited by an attacker to gain unauthorized     access and potentially lead to a loss of Confidentiality, Integrity and/or Availability.

    CVE-2023-45235:
    EDK2's Network Package is susceptible to a buffer overflow vulnerability when     handling Server ID option     from a DHCPv6 proxy Advertise message. This     vulnerability can be exploited by an attacker to gain unauthorized     access and potentially lead to a loss of Confidentiality, Integrity and/or Availability.

The Rocky Linux 9.2 host has packages installed that are affected by multiple vulnerabilities as referenced in the CIQ ciqsa-2026_0408 advisory.

    This advisory aggregates security fixes for the edk2 SRPM in CIQ LTS 9.2. It addresses 25 CVEs:
    CVE-2022-36763, CVE-2022-36764, CVE-2022-36765, CVE-2022-4304, CVE-2022-4450, and 20 more.

The version of AHV installed on the remote host is prior to 20230302.102005. It is, therefore, affected by multiple vulnerabilities as referenced in the NXSA-AHV-20230302.101026 advisory.

  - A crafted NTFS image can trigger a heap-based buffer overflow, caused by an unsanitized attribute in     ntfs_get_attribute_value, in NTFS-3G < 2021.8.22. (CVE-2021-39263)

  - EDK2's Network Package is susceptible to a buffer overflow vulnerability when processing DNS Servers     option from a DHCPv6 Advertise message. This vulnerability can be exploited by an attacker to gain     unauthorized access and potentially lead to a loss of Confidentiality, Integrity and/or Availability.
    (CVE-2023-45234)

  - Certain DNSSEC aspects of the DNS protocol (in RFC 4033, 4034, 4035, 6840, and related RFCs) allow remote     attackers to cause a denial of service (CPU consumption) via one or more DNSSEC responses, aka the     KeyTrap issue. One of the concerns is that, when there is a zone with many DNSKEY and RRSIG records, the     protocol specification implies that an algorithm must evaluate all combinations of DNSKEY and RRSIG     records. (CVE-2023-50387)

  - The Closest Encloser Proof aspect of the DNS protocol (in RFC 5155 when RFC 9276 guidance is skipped)     allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (CPU consumption for SHA-1 computations) via DNSSEC     responses in a random subdomain attack, aka the NSEC3 issue. The RFC 5155 specification implies that an     algorithm must perform thousands of iterations of a hash function in certain situations. (CVE-2023-50868)

  - close_altfile in filename.c in less before 606 omits shell_quote calls for LESSCLOSE. (CVE-2022-48624)
