There are packages installed that are affected by a vulnerability referenced in the following CVE:

  - Improper Authorization in GitHub repository cobbler/cobbler prior to 3.3.2. (CVE-2022-0860)

The remote SUSE Linux SLES15 host has packages installed that are affected by multiple vulnerabilities as referenced in the SUSE-SU-2022:3750-1 advisory.

    cobbler:

    - Consider case of 'next_server' being a hostname during migration of Cobbler collections.
    - Fix problem with 'proxy_url_ext' setting being None type.
    - Fix settings migration schema to work while upgrading on existing running       Uyuni and SUSE Manager servers running with old Cobbler settings (bsc#1203478)
    - Do generate boot menus even if no profiles or systems - only local boot
    - Avoid crashing running buildiso in certain conditions.
    - Fix issue that a custom kernel with the extension '.kernel' is not       accepted by 'cobbler distro add'
    - Fix issue with 'get_item_resolved_value' that prevented it from       returning in cases where a complex object would have been returned
    - Fix issue where the logs would have been spammed with 'grab_tree'       messages that are meant for debugging
    - Buildiso - Fix DNS append line generation
    - Change apache2 conf dir for SUSE distros to allow integration with       Uyuni and SUSE Manager
    - Avoid permissions errors during cobbler sync
    - Update to version 3.3.3
    - Add UEFI capabilities to 'cobbler buildiso' (jsc#SUMA-112)

        * Cobbler should now build on AlmaLinux.
        * The initrd is not required anymore as it is an optional file.
        * XML-RPC: Added dump_vars endpoint. This is intended to replace get_blended_data as of 3.4.0.
        * XML-RPC: Added get_item_resolved_value & set_item_resolved_value endpoints.
      * Breaking Changes:
        * The field virt_file_size is now a float and the related settings as well.
      * Changes:
        * The error messages for duplicated objects now contains the name of the duplicated object.
      * Bugfixes:
        * Dictionaries had the wrong value set for <<inherit>>.
        * There were some cases in which the autoinstallation manager was handed the wrong object and then     crashed.
        * The inheritance of the owners field was fixed.
        * Serial Console options should not contain bogous -1 value anymore.
        * HTTP API should not throw permission errors anymore.
        * During build the log was not visible due to a custom logger without output.
        * cobbler mkloaders now also copies dependencies of menu.c32.
        * We now generate the grub configuration for the architectures correct again.
        * virt_file_size now is a float at all times.
        * Cobbler should restart successfully now if you have attached an image to a system.

        * cobbler buildiso: The isolinux.cfg was not properly formatted.
        * There were unharmful templating errors in the log related to redhat_management_type. The parts     depending on this           were removed.
        * The DNS managers were non-functional before because of a not existing function call.
        * cobbler buildiso failed with --tmpdirs that don't end in buildiso.
        * cobbler buildiso had outdated docs and help messages for some parameters.
        * cobbler import: It was impossible to import Rocky Linux 8.5 successfully.
        * Cobbler created duplicated settings files before.
        * cobbler sync was broken by refactoring to shell=False before.
