Test ID:1.3.6.1.4.1.25623.1.1.1.2.2023.3688
Category:Debian Local Security Checks
Title:Debian: Security Advisory (DLA-3688-1)
Summary:The remote host is missing an update for the Debian 'haproxy' package(s) announced via the DLA-3688-1 advisory.
Description:Summary:
The remote host is missing an update for the Debian 'haproxy' package(s) announced via the DLA-3688-1 advisory.

Vulnerability Insight:
It was discovered that there was a potential information disclosure vulnerability in HAProxy, a reverse proxy server used to load balance HTTP requests across multiple servers.

HAProxy formerly accepted the # (ie. the 'pound' or 'hash') symbol as part of a URI component. This might have allowed remote attackers to obtain sensitive information upon HAProxy's misinterpretation of a path_end rule, such as by routing index.html#.png to a static server.

CVE-2023-45539

HAProxy before 2.8.2 accepts # as part of the URI component, which might allow remote attackers to obtain sensitive information or have unspecified other impact upon misinterpretation of a path_end rule, such as routing index.html#.png to a static server.

For Debian 10 Buster, this problem has been fixed in version 1.8.19-1+deb10u5.

We recommend that you upgrade your haproxy packages.
