The remote Oracle Linux 9 host has packages installed that are affected by multiple vulnerabilities as referenced in the ELSA-2024-2146 advisory.
- CVE-2023-43786 libX11: stack exhaustion from infinite recursion in PutSubImage()
- CVE-2023-43787 libX11: integer overflow in XCreateImage() leading to a heap overflow
- CVE-2023-43788 libXpm: out of bounds read in XpmCreateXpmImageFromBuffer()
Tenable has extracted the preceding description block directly from the Oracle Linux security advisory.
Note that Nessus has not tested for these issues but has instead relied only on the application’s self-reported version number.
