"The version of Tencent Linux installed on the remote TencentOS Server 3 host is prior to tested version. It is,
therefore, affected by a vulnerability as referenced in the TSSA-2022:0189 advisory.
Package updates are available for TencentOS Server 3 that fix the following vulnerabilities:
CVE-2022-21698:
client_golang is the instrumentation library for Go applications in Prometheus, and the promhttp package
in client_golang provides tooling around HTTP servers and clients. In client_golang prior to version
1.11.1, HTTP server is susceptible to a Denial of Service through unbounded cardinality, and potential
memory exhaustion, when handling requests with non-standard HTTP methods. In order to be affected, an
instrumented software must use any of `promhttp.InstrumentHandler*` middleware except `RequestsInFlight`;
not filter any specific methods (e.g GET) before middleware; pass metric with `method` label name to our
middleware; and not have any firewall/LB/proxy that filters away requests with unknown `method`.
client_golang version 1.11.1 contains a patch for this issue. Several workarounds are available, including
removing the `method` label name from counter/gauge used in the InstrumentHandler; turning off affected
promhttp handlers; adding custom middleware before promhttp handler that will sanitize the request method
given by Go http.Request; and using a reverse proxy or web application firewall, configured to only allow
a limited set of methods.
Tenable has extracted the preceding description block directly from the Tencent Linux security advisory.
Note that Nessus has not tested for this issue but has instead relied only on the application's self-reported version
number.");
