"The remote NewStart CGSL host, running version MAIN 7.02, has libuv packages installed that are affected by a
vulnerability:

  - libuv is a multi-platform support library with a focus on asynchronous I/O. The `uv_getaddrinfo` function
    in `src/unix/getaddrinfo.c` (and its windows counterpart `src/win/getaddrinfo.c`), truncates hostnames to
    256 characters before calling `getaddrinfo`. This behavior can be exploited to create addresses like
    `0x00007f000001`, which are considered valid by `getaddrinfo` and could allow an attacker to craft
    payloads that resolve to unintended IP addresses, bypassing developer checks. The vulnerability arises due
    to how the `hostname_ascii` variable (with a length of 256 bytes) is handled in `uv_getaddrinfo` and
    subsequently in `uv__idna_toascii`. When the hostname exceeds 256 characters, it gets truncated without a
    terminating null byte. As a result attackers may be able to access internal APIs or for websites (similar
    to MySpace) that allows users to have `username.example.com` pages. Internal services that crawl or cache
    these user pages can be exposed to SSRF attacks if a malicious user chooses a long vulnerable username.
    This issue has been addressed in release version 1.48.0. Users are advised to upgrade. There are no known
    workarounds for this vulnerability. (CVE-2024-24806)

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