"It is, therefore, affected by multiple vulnerabilities as referenced in the ALAS2023-2024-700 advisory.

    An attacker may cause an HTTP/2 endpoint to read arbitrary amounts of header data by sending an excessive
    number of CONTINUATION frames. Maintaining HPACK state requires parsing and processing all HEADERS and
    CONTINUATION frames on a connection. When a request's headers exceed MaxHeaderBytes, no memory is
    allocated to store the excess headers, but they are still parsed. This permits an attacker to cause an
    HTTP/2 endpoint to read arbitrary amounts of header data, all associated with a request which is going to
    be rejected. These headers can include Huffman-encoded data which is significantly more expensive for the
    receiver to decode than for an attacker to send. The fix sets a limit on the amount of excess header
    frames we will process before closing a connection. (CVE-2023-45288)

    The protojson.Unmarshal function can enter an infinite loop when unmarshaling certain forms of invalid
    JSON. This condition can occur when unmarshaling into a message which contains a google.protobuf.Any
    value, or when the UnmarshalOptions.DiscardUnknown option is set. (CVE-2024-24786)

    Package jose aims to provide an implementation of the Javascript Object Signing and Encryption set of
    standards. An attacker could send a JWE containing compressed data that used large amounts of memory and
    CPU when decompressed by Decrypt or DecryptMulti. Those functions now return an error if the decompressed
    data would exceed 250kB or 10x the compressed size (whichever is larger). This vulnerability has been
    patched in versions 4.0.1, 3.0.3 and 2.6.3. (CVE-2024-28180)

Tenable has extracted the preceding description block directly from the tested product security advisory.

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