"The version of Tencent Linux installed on the remote TencentOS Server 4 host is prior to tested version. It is,
therefore, affected by a vulnerability as referenced in the TSSA-2025:0162 advisory.

    Package updates are available for TencentOS Server 4 that fix the following vulnerabilities:

    CVE-2023-30861:
    Flask is a lightweight WSGI web application framework. When all of the following conditions are met, a
    response containing data intended for one client may be cached and subsequently sent by the proxy to other
    clients. If the proxy also caches `Set-Cookie` headers, it may send one client's `session` cookie to other
    clients. The severity depends on the application's use of the session and the proxy's behavior regarding
    cookies. The risk depends on all these conditions being met.

    1. The application must be hosted behind a caching proxy that does not strip cookies or ignore responses
    with cookies.
    2. The application sets `session.permanent = True`
    3. The application does not access or modify the session at any point during a request.
    4. `SESSION_REFRESH_EACH_REQUEST` enabled (the default).
    5. The application does not set a `Cache-Control` header to indicate that a page is private or should not
    be cached.

    This happens because vulnerable versions of Flask only set the `Vary: Cookie` header when the session is
    accessed or modified, not when it is refreshed (re-sent to update the expiration) without being accessed
    or modified. This issue has been fixed in versions 2.3.2 and 2.2.5.

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.");
