The remote Red Hat Enterprise Linux CoreOS 4 host has packages installed that are affected by multiple vulnerabilities as referenced in the RHSA-2020:2413 advisory.

  - kubernetes: credential leak in kube-controller-manager via error messages in mount failure logs and events     for AzureFile and CephFS volumes (CVE-2019-11252)

  - kubernetes: Denial of service in API server via crafted YAML payloads by authorized users (CVE-2019-11254)

  - kubernetes: node localhost services reachable via martian packets (CVE-2020-8558)

  - proglottis/gpgme: Use-after-free in GPGME bindings during container image pull (CVE-2020-8945)

  - golang.org/x/crypto: Processing of crafted ssh-ed25519 public keys allows for panic (CVE-2020-9283)

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

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

  - The Kubernetes API Server component in versions 1.1-1.14, and versions prior to 1.15.10, 1.16.7 and 1.17.3     allows an authorized user who sends malicious YAML payloads to cause the kube-apiserver to consume     excessive CPU cycles while parsing YAML. (CVE-2019-11254)

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

The version of Kubernetes installed on the remote host is a version prior to 1.13.10, or 1.14.x prior to 1.14.6, or 1.15.x prior to 1.15.3. It is, therefore, affected by a denial of service vulnerability

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

The remote Red Hat Enterprise Linux CoreOS 3 host has packages installed that are affected by multiple vulnerabilities as referenced in the RHSA-2020:2479 advisory.

  - libseccomp-golang: mishandling of multiple argument rules leading to a bypass of intended access     restrictions (CVE-2017-18367)

  - kubernetes: Denial of service in API server via crafted YAML payloads by authorized users (CVE-2019-11254)

  - kubernetes: Server side request forgery (SSRF) in kube-controller-manager allows users to leak secret     information (CVE-2020-8555)
