Red Hat Satellite 6.15 is vulnerable to cross-site scripting XSS due to installed package pycryptodomex version 3.14.1

Solution Verified - Updated -

Issue

  • The automatic removal of old packages does not occur after the upgrade of the Red Hat Satellite server necessitating manual intervention for their cleanup

  • The Satellite is vulnerable to a cross-site scripting (XSS) flaw due to an outdated version of the aioHTTP Python library. The version of /usr/lib64/python3.9/pycryptodomex remains at 3.14.1 instead of the 3.19.1 in Satellite version 6.15
