The remote Ubuntu 20.04 LTS / 22.04 LTS / 23.04 / 23.10 host has packages installed that are affected by multiple vulnerabilities as referenced in the USN-6594-1 advisory.
Joshua Rogers discovered that Squid incorrectly handled HTTP message processing. A remote attacker could possibly use this issue to cause Squid to crash, resulting in a denial of service. (CVE-2023-49285)
Joshua Rogers discovered that Squid incorrectly handled Helper process management. A remote attacker could possibly use this issue to cause Squid to crash, resulting in a denial of service. (CVE-2023-49286)
Joshua Rogers discovered that Squid incorrectly handled HTTP request parsing. A remote attacker could possibly use this issue to cause Squid to crash, resulting in a denial of service. (CVE-2023-50269)
Tenable has extracted the preceding description block directly from the Ubuntu security advisory.
Note that Nessus has not tested for these issues but has instead relied only on the application’s self-reported version number.
