The remote SUSE Linux SLES15 / SLES_SAP15 / openSUSE 15 host has packages installed that are affected by multiple vulnerabilities as referenced in the SUSE-SU-2023:2663-1 advisory.
The vulnerability exists due to the use of proto in process.mainModule.proto.require(). This allows to bypass the policy mechanism and require modules outside of the policy.json definition. (CVE-2023-30581)
The vulnerability exists due to the way Node.js (.msi version) installation process handles a missing %USERPROFILE% environment variable. If the variable is not set, the .msi installer will try to include a current working directory into the search path and will libraries in an unsafe manner. A local user can place a malicious file on the victim’s system and execute arbitrary code with elevated privileges.
(CVE-2023-30585)
The vulnerability exists due to insufficient validation of user-supplied public key within the crypto.X509Certificate() API. A remote user can pass an invalid public key to the application and perform a denial of service (DoS) attack. (CVE-2023-30588)
The llhttp parser in the http module in Node v20.2.0 does not strictly use the CRLF sequence to delimit HTTP requests. This can lead to HTTP Request Smuggling (HRS). The CR character (without LF) is sufficient to delimit HTTP header fields in the llhttp parser. According to RFC7230 section 3, only the CRLF sequence should delimit each header-field. This impacts all Node.js active versions: v16, v18, and, v20 (CVE-2023-30589)
The vulnerability exists due to inconsistency between implementation and documented design within the generateKeys() API function. The documented behavior is different from the actual behavior, and this difference could lead to security issues in applications that use these APIs as the DiffieHellman may be used as the basis for application-level security. (CVE-2023-30590)
c-ares is an asynchronous resolver library. When cross-compiling c-ares and using the autotools build system, CARES_RANDOM_FILE will not be set, as seen when cross compiling aarch64 android. This will downgrade to using rand() as a fallback which could allow an attacker to take advantage of the lack of entropy by not using a CSPRNG. This issue was patched in version 1.19.1. (CVE-2023-31124)
c-ares is an asynchronous resolver library. ares_inet_net_pton() is vulnerable to a buffer underflow for certain ipv6 addresses, in particular 0::00:00:00/2 was found to cause an issue. C-ares only uses this function internally for configuration purposes which would require an administrator to configure such an address via ares_set_sortlist(). However, users may externally use ares_inet_net_pton() for other purposes and thus be vulnerable to more severe issues. This issue has been fixed in 1.19.1. (CVE-2023-31130)
c-ares is an asynchronous resolver library. When /dev/urandom or RtlGenRandom() are unavailable, c-ares uses rand() to generate random numbers used for DNS query ids. This is not a CSPRNG, and it is also not seeded by srand() so will generate predictable output. Input from the random number generator is fed into a non-compilant RC4 implementation and may not be as strong as the original RC4 implementation. No attempt is made to look for modern OS-provided CSPRNGs like arc4random() that is widely available. This issue has been fixed in version 1.19.1. (CVE-2023-31147)
c-ares is an asynchronous resolver library. c-ares is vulnerable to denial of service. If a target resolver sends a query, the attacker forges a malformed UDP packet with a length of 0 and returns them to the target resolver. The target resolver erroneously interprets the 0 length as a graceful shutdown of the connection. This issue has been patched in version 1.19.1. (CVE-2023-32067)
Note that Nessus has not tested for these issues but has instead relied only on the application’s self-reported version number.
