The remote CentOS Linux 7 host has packages installed that are affected by a vulnerability as referenced in the CESA-2021:2357 advisory.

  - dhcp: stack-based buffer overflow when parsing statements with colon-separated hex digits in config or     lease files in dhcpd and dhclient (CVE-2021-25217)

Note that Nessus has not tested for this issue but has instead relied only on the application's self-reported version number.

The remote Oracle Linux 6 host has packages installed that are affected by a vulnerability as referenced in the ELSA-2021-9314 advisory.

  - In ISC DHCP 4.1-ESV-R1 -> 4.1-ESV-R16, ISC DHCP 4.4.0 -> 4.4.2 (Other branches of ISC DHCP (i.e., releases     in the 4.0.x series or lower and releases in the 4.3.x series) are beyond their End-of-Life (EOL) and no     longer supported by ISC. From inspection it is clear that the defect is also present in releases from     those series, but they have not been officially tested for the vulnerability), The outcome of encountering     the defect while reading a lease that will trigger it varies, according to: the component being affected     (i.e., dhclient or dhcpd) whether the package was built as a 32-bit or 64-bit binary whether the compiler     flag -fstack-protection-strong was used when compiling In dhclient, ISC has not successfully reproduced     the error on a 64-bit system. However, on a 32-bit system it is possible to cause dhclient to crash when     reading an improper lease, which could cause network connectivity problems for an affected system due to     the absence of a running DHCP client process. In dhcpd, when run in DHCPv4 or DHCPv6 mode: if the dhcpd     server binary was built for a 32-bit architecture AND the -fstack-protection-strong flag was specified to     the compiler, dhcpd may exit while parsing a lease file containing an objectionable lease, resulting in     lack of service to clients. Additionally, the offending lease and the lease immediately following it in     the lease database may be improperly deleted. if the dhcpd server binary was built for a 64-bit     architecture OR if the -fstack-protection-strong compiler flag was NOT specified, the crash will not     occur, but it is possible for the offending lease and the lease which immediately followed it to be     improperly deleted.
