The remote Redhat Enterprise Linux 9 host has packages installed that are affected by multiple vulnerabilities as referenced in the RHSA-2023:5849 advisory.

  • nodejs: integrity checks according to policies can be circumvented (CVE-2023-38552)

  • nodejs: code injection via WebAssembly export names (CVE-2023-39333)

  • HTTP/2: Multiple HTTP/2 enabled web servers are vulnerable to a DDoS attack (Rapid Reset Attack) (CVE-2023-44487)

  • node-undici: cookie leakage (CVE-2023-45143)

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