The remote Oracle Linux 8 host has packages installed that are affected by multiple vulnerabilities as referenced in the ELSA-2022-1986 advisory.

  • python: ftplib should not use the host from the PASV response (CVE-2021-4189)

  • A flaw was found in python. An improperly handled HTTP response in the HTTP client code of python may allow a remote attacker, who controls the HTTP server, to make the client script enter an infinite loop, consuming CPU time. The highest threat from this vulnerability is to system availability. (CVE-2021-3737)

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