"The remote Fedora 32 host has a package installed that is affected by a vulnerability as referenced in the
FEDORA-2021-24fdc228e4 advisory.
- Mechanize is an open-source ruby library that makes automated web interaction easy. In Mechanize from
version 2.0.0 and before version 2.7.7 there is a command injection vulnerability. Affected versions of
mechanize allow for OS commands to be injected using several classes' methods which implicitly use Ruby's
Kernel.open method. Exploitation is possible only if untrusted input is used as a local filename and
passed to any of these calls: Mechanize::CookieJar#load, Mechanize::CookieJar#save_as, Mechanize#download,
Mechanize::Download#save, Mechanize::File#save, and Mechanize::FileResponse#read_body. This is fixed in
version 2.7.7. (CVE-2021-21289)
Note that Nessus has not tested for this issue but has instead relied only on the application's self-reported version
