The remote Fedora 39 host has a package installed that is affected by multiple vulnerabilities as referenced in the FEDORA-2023-f1c8e4c1cc advisory.

  • AUTH Out-Of-Bounds Write Remote Code Execution Vulnerability [epel-all] (CVE-2023-42115)

  • Exim SMTP Challenge Stack-based Buffer Overflow Remote Code Execution Vulnerability (CVE-2023-42116, CVE-2023-42117)

  • NTLM Challenge Out-Of-Bounds Read Information Disclosure Vulnerability [epel-all] (CVE-2023-42114)

  • dnsdb Out-Of-Bounds Read Information Disclosure Vulnerability [epel-all] (CVE-2023-42119)

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