Test ID:	1.3.6.1.4.1.25623.1.1.10.2024.0261
Category:	Mageia Linux Local Security Checks
Title:	Mageia: Security Advisory (MGASA-2024-0261)
Summary:	The remote host is missing an update for the 'golang' package(s) announced via the MGASA-2024-0261 advisory.
Description:	Summary: The remote host is missing an update for the 'golang' package(s) announced via the MGASA-2024-0261 advisory. Vulnerability Insight: The net/http HTTP/1.1 client mishandled the case where a server responds to a request with an 'Expect: 100-continue' header with a non-informational (200 or higher) status. This mishandling could leave a client connection in an invalid state, where the next request sent on the connection will fail. An attacker sending a request to a net/http/httputil.ReverseProxy proxy can exploit this mishandling to cause a denial of service by sending 'Expect: 100-continue' requests which elicit a non-informational response from the backend. Each such request leaves the proxy with an invalid connection, and causes one subsequent request using that connection to fail. (CVE-2024-24791) Affected Software/OS: 'golang' package(s) on Mageia 9. Solution: Please install the updated package(s). CVSS Score: 5.0 CVSS Vector: AV:N/AC:L/Au:N/C:P/I:N/A:N
