The remote NewStart CGSL host, running version CORE 5.04 / MAIN 5.04, has python-virtualenv packages installed that are affected by multiple vulnerabilities:

  • In the urllib3 library through 1.24.1 for Python, CRLF injection is possible if the attacker controls the request parameter. (CVE-2019-11236)

  • urllib3 before version 1.23 does not remove the Authorization HTTP header when following a cross-origin redirect (i.e., a redirect that differs in host, port, or scheme). This can allow for credentials in the Authorization header to be exposed to unintended hosts or transmitted in cleartext. (CVE-2018-20060)

  • The Requests package before 2.20.0 for Python sends an HTTP Authorization header to an http URI upon receiving a same-hostname https-to-http redirect, which makes it easier for remote attackers to discover credentials by sniffing the network. (CVE-2018-18074)

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