The remote Redhat Enterprise Linux 8 host has packages installed that are affected by multiple vulnerabilities as referenced in the RHSA-2021:1611 advisory.

The systemd packages contain systemd, a system and service manager for Linux, compatible with the SysV and     LSB init scripts. It provides aggressive parallelism capabilities, uses socket and D-Bus activation for     starting services, offers on-demand starting of daemons, and keeps track of processes using Linux cgroups.
In addition, it supports snapshotting and restoring of the system state, maintains mount and automount     points, and implements an elaborate transactional dependency-based service control logic. It can also work     as a drop-in replacement for sysvinit.

Security Fix(es):

* systemd: Spoofing of XDG_SEAT allows for actions to be checked against allow_active instead of     allow_any (CVE-2019-3842)

* systemd: Mishandles numerical usernames beginning with decimal digits or 0x followed by hexadecimal     digits (CVE-2020-13776)

For more details about the security issue(s), including the impact, a CVSS score, acknowledgments, and     other related information, refer to the CVE page(s) listed in the References section.

Additional Changes:

For detailed information on changes in this release, see the Red Hat Enterprise Linux 8.4 Release Notes     linked from the References section.

Tenable has extracted the preceding description block directly from the Red Hat Enterprise Linux security advisory.

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