The remote Ubuntu 18.04 LTS / 20.04 LTS / 21.10 host has packages installed that are affected by multiple vulnerabilities as referenced in the USN-5354-1 advisory.

  • twisted is an event-driven networking engine written in Python. In affected versions twisted exposes cookies and authorization headers when following cross-origin redirects. This issue is present in the twited.web.RedirectAgent and twisted.web. BrowserLikeRedirectAgent functions. Users are advised to upgrade. There are no known workarounds. (CVE-2022-21712)

  • Twisted is an event-based framework for internet applications, supporting Python 3.6+. Prior to 22.2.0, Twisted SSH client and server implement is able to accept an infinite amount of data for the peer’s SSH version identifier. This ends up with a buffer using all the available memory. The attach is a simple as nc -rv localhost 22 < /dev/zero. A patch is available in version 22.2.0. There are currently no known workarounds. (CVE-2022-21716)

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