"The version of Tencent Linux installed on the remote TencentOS Server 3 host is prior to tested version. It is,
therefore, affected by multiple vulnerabilities as referenced in the TSSA-2022:0200 advisory.
Package updates are available for TencentOS Server 3 that fix the following vulnerabilities:
CVE-2021-22947:
When curl be equal or greater than 7.20.0 and less than or equal to 7.78.0 connects to an IMAP or POP3
server to retrieve data using STARTTLS to upgrade to TLS security, the server can respond and send back
multiple responses at once that curl caches. curl would then upgrade to TLS but not flush the in-queue of
cached responses but instead continue using and trustingthe responses it got *before* the TLS handshake as
if they were authenticated.Using this flaw, it allows a Man-In-The-Middle attacker to first inject the
fake responses, then pass-through the TLS traffic from the legitimate server and trick curl into sending
data back to the user thinking the attacker's injected data comes from the TLS-protected server.
CVE-2021-22946:
A user can tell curl be equal or greater than 7.20.0 and less than or equal to 7.78.0 to require a
successful upgrade to TLS when speaking to an IMAP, POP3 or FTP server (`--ssl-reqd` on the command line
or`CURLOPT_USE_SSL` set to `CURLUSESSL_CONTROL` or `CURLUSESSL_ALL` withlibcurl). This requirement could
be bypassed if the server would return a properly crafted but perfectly legitimate response.This flaw
would then make curl silently continue its operations **withoutTLS** contrary to the instructions and
expectations, exposing possibly sensitive data in clear text over the network.
CVE-2021-22925:
curl supports the `-t` command line option, known as `CURLOPT_TELNETOPTIONS`in libcurl. This rarely used
option is used to send variable=content pairs toTELNET servers.Due to flaw in the option parser for
sending `NEW_ENV` variables, libcurlcould be made to pass on uninitialized data from a stack based buffer
to theserver. Therefore potentially revealing sensitive internal information to theserver using a clear-
text network protocol.This could happen because curl did not call and use sscanf() correctly whenparsing
the string provided by the application.
Tenable has extracted the preceding description block directly from the Tencent Linux security advisory.
Note that Nessus has not tested for these issues but has instead relied only on the application's self-reported version
number.");
