An update of the haproxy package has been released.

The remote Redhat Enterprise Linux 7 host has a package installed that is affected by a vulnerability as referenced in the RHSA-2019:0548 advisory.

  - haproxy: Mishandling of priority flag in short HEADERS frame by HTTP/2 decoder allows for crash     (CVE-2018-20615)

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

According to the versions of the haproxy package installed, the EulerOS Virtualization for ARM 64 installation on the remote host is affected by the following vulnerabilities :

  - An out-of-bounds read in dns_validate_dns_response in     dns.c was discovered in HAProxy through 1.8.14. Due to     a missing check when validating DNS responses, remote     attackers might be able read the 16 bytes corresponding     to an AAAA record from the non-initialized part of the     buffer, possibly accessing anything that was left on     the stack, or even past the end of the 8193-byte     buffer, depending on the value of     accepted_payload_size.(CVE-2018-20102)

  - An issue was discovered in dns.c in HAProxy through     1.8.14. In the case of a compressed pointer, a crafted     packet can trigger infinite recursion by making the     pointer point to itself, or create a long chain of     valid pointers resulting in stack     exhaustion.(CVE-2018-20103)

  - An out-of-bounds read issue was discovered in the     HTTP/2 protocol decoder in HAProxy 1.8.x and 1.9.x     through 1.9.0 which can result in a crash. The     processing of the PRIORITY flag in a HEADERS frame     requires 5 extra bytes, and while these bytes are     skipped, the total frame length was not re-checked to     make sure they were present in the     frame.(CVE-2018-20615)

Note that Tenable Network Security has extracted the preceding description block directly from the EulerOS security advisory. Tenable has attempted to automatically clean and format it as much as possible without introducing additional issues.

This update for haproxy version 1.8.17 fixes the following issues :

Security issues fixed :

  - CVE-2018-20615: Fixed a denial of service, triggered by     mishandling the priority flag on short HEADERS frame in     the HTTP/2 decoder (bsc#1121283)

This update was imported from the SUSE:SLE-15:Update update project.

The remote Redhat Enterprise Linux 7 host has a package installed that is affected by multiple vulnerabilities as referenced in the RHSA-2019:0547 advisory.

  - haproxy: Out-of-bounds read in dns.c:dns_validate_dns_response() allows for memory disclosure     (CVE-2018-20102)

  - haproxy: Mishandling of priority flag in short HEADERS frame by HTTP/2 decoder allows for crash     (CVE-2018-20615)

According to the versions of the haproxy package installed, the EulerOS installation on the remote host is affected by the following vulnerabilities :

  - HAProxy is a TCP/HTTP reverse proxy which is     particularly suited for high availability environments.
    Indeed, it can: - route HTTP requests depending on     statically assigned cookies - spread load among several     servers while assuring server persistence through the     use of HTTP cookies - switch to backup servers in the     event a main one fails - accept connections to special     ports dedicated to service monitoring - stop accepting     connections without breaking existing ones - add,     modify, and delete HTTP headers in both directions -     block requests matching particular patterns - report     detailed status to authenticated users from a URI     intercepted from the applicationSecurity Fix(es):An     out-of-bounds read issue was discovered in the HTTP/2     protocol decoder in HAProxy 1.8.x and 1.9.x through     1.9.0 which can result in a crash.
