"The remote Alibaba Cloud Linux 3 host has packages installed that are affected by multiple vulnerabilities as referenced
in the ALINUX3-SA-2022:0099 advisory.

    Package updates are available for Alibaba Cloud Linux 3 that fix the following vulnerabilities:

    CVE-2020-8252:
    The implementation of realpath in libuv  10.22.1,  12.18.4, and  14.9.0 used within Node.js incorrectly
    determined the buffer size which can result in a buffer overflow if the resolved path is longer than 256
    bytes.

    CVE-2021-22918:
    Node.js before 16.4.1, 14.17.2, 12.22.2 is vulnerable to an out-of-bounds read when uv__idna_toascii() is
    used to convert strings to ASCII. The pointer p is read and increased without checking whether it is
    beyond pe, with the latter holding a pointer to the end of the buffer. This can lead to information
    disclosures or crashes. This function can be triggered via uv_getaddrinfo().

Tenable has extracted the preceding description block directly from the Alibaba Cloud Linux security advisory.

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