"The remote Rocky Linux 8 host has packages installed that are affected by multiple vulnerabilities as referenced in the
RLSA-2021:5171 advisory.
- This affects the package glob-parent before 5.1.2. The enclosure regex used to check for strings ending in
enclosure containing path separator. (CVE-2020-28469)
- This affects the package ini before 1.3.6. If an attacker submits a malicious INI file to an application
that parses it with ini.parse, they will pollute the prototype on the application. This can be exploited
further depending on the context. (CVE-2020-7788)
- The parser in accepts requests with a space (SP) right after the header name before the colon. This can
lead to HTTP Request Smuggling (HRS) in llhttp < v2.1.4 and < v6.0.6. (CVE-2021-22959)
- The parse function in llhttp < 2.1.4 and < 6.0.6. ignores chunk extensions when parsing the body of
chunked requests. This leads to HTTP Request Smuggling (HRS) under certain conditions. (CVE-2021-22960)
- The normalize-url package before 4.5.1, 5.x before 5.3.1, and 6.x before 6.0.1 for Node.js has a ReDoS
(regular expression denial of service) issue because it has exponential performance for data: URLs.
(CVE-2021-33502)
- ansi-regex is vulnerable to Inefficient Regular Expression Complexity (CVE-2021-3807)
- json-schema is vulnerable to Improperly Controlled Modification of Object Prototype Attributes ('Prototype
Pollution') (CVE-2021-3918)
Note that Nessus has not tested for these issues but has instead relied only on the application's self-reported version
number.");
