The remote SUSE Linux SLES12 / SLES_SAP12 host has packages installed that are affected by multiple vulnerabilities as referenced in the SUSE-SU-2024:3293-1 advisory.

- CVE-2024-7592: quadratic complexity when parsing cookies with backslashes. (bsc#1229596)
- CVE-2024-6923: email header injection due to unquoted newlines. (bsc#1228780)

Bug fixes:

- Set variable %{profileopt} according to the variable %{do_profiling}. (bsc#1227999)
- Stop using %%defattr, as it seems to be breaking proper executable attributes on /usr/bin/ scripts.
(bsc#1227378)
- Remove %suse_update_desktop_file macro, as it is not useful any more.

Tenable has extracted the preceding description block directly from the SUSE security advisory.

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