The version of cloud-hypervisor-cvm / nodejs18 / openssl / nodejs installed on the remote CBL Mariner 2.0 host is prior to tested version. It is, therefore, affected by a vulnerability as referenced in the CVE-2023-6237 advisory.

  • Issue summary: Checking excessively long invalid RSA public keys May take a long time. Impact summary:
    Applications that use the function EVP_PKEY_public_check() to check RSA public keys May experience long delays. Where the key that is being checked has been obtained from an untrusted source this May lead to a Denial of Service. When function EVP_PKEY_public_check() is called on RSA public keys, a computation is done to confirm that the RSA modulus, n, is composite. For valid RSA keys, n is a product of two or more large primes and this computation completes quickly. However, if n is an overly large prime, then this computation would take a long time. An application that calls EVP_PKEY_public_check() and supplies an RSA key obtained from an untrusted source could be vulnerable to a Denial of Service attack. The function EVP_PKEY_public_check() is not called from other OpenSSL functions however it is called from the OpenSSL pkey command line application. For that reason that application is also vulnerable if used with the โ€˜-pubinโ€™ and โ€˜-checkโ€™ options on untrusted data. The OpenSSL SSL/TLS implementation is not affected by this issue. The OpenSSL 3.0 and 3.1 FIPS providers are affected by this issue. (CVE-2023-6237)

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