Test ID:1.3.6.1.4.1.25623.1.1.10.2022.0161
Category:Mageia Linux Local Security Checks
Title:Mageia: Security Advisory (MGASA-2022-0161)
Summary:The remote host is missing an update for the 'lighttpd' package(s) announced via the MGASA-2022-0161 advisory.
Description:Summary:
The remote host is missing an update for the 'lighttpd' package(s) announced via the MGASA-2022-0161 advisory.

Vulnerability Insight:
In lighttpd 1.4.46 through 1.4.63, the mod_extforward_Forwarded function
of the mod_extforward plugin has a stack-based buffer overflow (4 bytes
representing -1), as demonstrated by remote denial of service (daemon
crash) in a non-default configuration. The non-default configuration
requires handling of the Forwarded header in a somewhat unusual manner.
Also, a 32-bit system is much more likely to be affected than a 64-bit
system. (CVE-2022-22707)

Affected Software/OS:
'lighttpd' package(s) on Mageia 8.

Solution:
Please install the updated package(s).

CVSS Score:
4.3
