"The remote NewStart CGSL host, running version CORE 5.04 / MAIN 5.04, has dhcp packages installed that are affected by
multiple vulnerabilities:
- It was found that the DHCP daemon did not properly clean
up closed OMAPI connections in certain cases. A remote
attacker able to connect to the OMAPI port could use
this flaw to exhaust file descriptors in the DHCP
daemon, leading to a denial of service in the OMAPI
functionality. (CVE-2017-3144)
- A command injection flaw was found in the NetworkManager
integration script included in the DHCP client packages
in Red Hat Enterprise Linux. A malicious DHCP server, or
an attacker on the local network able to spoof DHCP
responses, could use this flaw to execute arbitrary
commands with root privileges on systems using
NetworkManager and configured to obtain network
configuration using the DHCP protocol. (CVE-2018-1111)
Note that Nessus has not tested for this issue but has instead relied only on the application's self-reported version
number.");
