The remote NewStart CGSL host, running version MAIN 4.05, has freeradius packages installed that are affected by multiple vulnerabilities:

  • An out-of-bounds read flaw was found in the way FreeRADIUS server handled decoding of DHCP packets. A remote attacker could use this flaw to crash the FreeRADIUS server by sending a specially crafted DHCP request. (CVE-2017-10983)

  • An out-of-bounds write flaw was found in the way FreeRADIUS server handled certain attributes in request packets. A remote attacker could use this flaw to crash the FreeRADIUS server or to execute arbitrary code in the context of the FreeRADIUS server process by sending a specially crafted request packet. (CVE-2017-10979)

  • An out-of-bounds read and write flaw was found in the way FreeRADIUS server handled RADIUS packets. A remote attacker could use this flaw to crash the FreeRADIUS server by sending a specially crafted RADIUS packet.
    (CVE-2017-10978)

  • A memory leak flaw was found in the way FreeRADIUS server handles decoding of DHCP packets. A remote attacker could use this flaw to cause the FreeRADIUS server to consume an increasing amount of memory resources over time, possibly leading to a crash due to memory exhaustion, by sending specially crafted DHCP packets. (CVE-2017-10981)

  • An out-of-bounds read flaw was found in the way FreeRADIUS server handles decoding of DHCP packets. A remote attacker could use this flaw to crash the FreeRADIUS server by sending a specially crafted DHCP request. (CVE-2017-10982)

  • A memory leak flaw was found in the way FreeRADIUS server handles decoding of DHCP packets. A remote attacker could use this flaw to cause the FreeRADIUS server to consume an increasing amount of memory resources over time possibly leading to a crash due to memory exhaustion. (CVE-2017-10980)

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