The remote SUSE Linux SLES12 / SLES_SAP12 host has packages installed that are affected by a vulnerability as referenced in the SUSE-SU-2023:0395-1 advisory.

    - CVE-2022-42969: Fixed an excessive resource consumption that could       be triggered when interacting with a Subversion repository       containing crated data (bsc#1204364).

    This also updates python3-py to version 1.8.1 for SUSE Linux Enterprise Server.

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

  - The py library through 1.11.0 for Python allows remote attackers to conduct a ReDoS (Regular expression     Denial of Service) attack via a Subversion repository with crafted info data, because the InfoSvnCommand     argument is mishandled. Note: This has been disputed by multiple third parties as not being reproduceable     and they argue this is not a valid vulnerability. (CVE-2022-42969)

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

The remote SUSE Linux SLED15 / SLED_SAP15 / SLES15 / SLES_SAP15 / openSUSE 15 host has a package installed that is affected by a vulnerability as referenced in the SUSE-SU-2023:0161-1 advisory.

The version of IBM Cognos Analytics installed on the remote host is 12.0.4 prior to 12.0.4 FP3, or 12.1.x prior to 12.1.3 FP2. It is, therefore, affected by multiple vulnerabilities as referenced in the IBM Security Bulletin No.
7287209:

  - NLTK versions 3.9.2 and prior are vulnerable to arbitrary code execution due to improper input     validation in the StanfordSegmenter module. The module dynamically loads external Java .jar files     without verification or sandboxing. An attacker can supply or replace the JAR file, enabling the     execution of arbitrary Java bytecode at import time. (CVE-2026-0848)

  - The lodash fix for CVE-2021-23337 added validation for the variable option in _.template but did not     apply the same validation to options.imports key names. Both paths flow into the same Function()     constructor sink. When an application passes untrusted input as options.imports key names, an attacker     can inject default-parameter expressions that execute arbitrary code at template compilation time.
    (CVE-2026-4800)

  - cryptography is a package designed to expose cryptographic primitives and recipes to Python developers.
    From 45.0.0 to before 46.0.7, if a non-contiguous buffer was passed to APIs which accepted Python     buffers (e.g. Hash.update()), this could lead to buffer overflows. (CVE-2026-39892)

The version of FreeBSD installed on the remote host is prior to tested version. It is, therefore, affected by a vulnerability as referenced in the 28a37df6-ba1a-4eed-bb64-623fc8e8dfd0 advisory.

  - The py library through 1.11.0 for Python allows remote attackers to conduct a ReDoS (Regular expression     Denial of Service) attack via a Subversion repository with crafted info data, because the InfoSvnCommand     argument is mishandled. (CVE-2022-42969)

The version of IBM Spectrum Protect Plus Web UI installed on the remote host is prior to 10.1.17.1 IBM Spectrum Protect Plus. It is, therefore, affected by multiple vulnerabilities as referenced in the 7237702 advisory.

  - Jinja is an extensible templating engine. Prior to 3.1.6, an oversight in how the Jinja sandboxed     environment interacts with the |attr filter allows an attacker that controls the content of a template to     execute arbitrary Python code. To exploit the vulnerability, an attacker needs to control the content of a     template. Whether that is the case depends on the type of application using Jinja. This vulnerability     impacts users of applications which execute untrusted templates. Jinja's sandbox does catch calls to     str.format and ensures they don't escape the sandbox. However, it's possible to use the |attr filter to     get a reference to a string's plain format method, bypassing the sandbox. After the fix, the |attr filter     no longer bypasses the environment's attribute lookup. This vulnerability is fixed in 3.1.6.
    (CVE-2025-27516)

  - This affects the package node-notifier before 9.0.0. It allows an attacker to run arbitrary commands on     Linux machines due to the options params not being sanitised when being passed an array. (CVE-2020-7789)

  - Requests is a HTTP library. Since Requests 2.3.0, Requests has been leaking Proxy-Authorization headers to     destination servers when redirected to an HTTPS endpoint. This is a product of how we use     `rebuild_proxies` to reattach the `Proxy-Authorization` header to requests. For HTTP connections sent     through the tunnel, the proxy will identify the header in the request itself and remove it prior to     forwarding to the destination server. However when sent over HTTPS, the `Proxy-Authorization` header must     be sent in the CONNECT request as the proxy has no visibility into the tunneled request. This results in     Requests forwarding proxy credentials to the destination server unintentionally, allowing a malicious     actor to potentially exfiltrate sensitive information. This issue has been patched in version 2.31.0.
