"The remote Alibaba Cloud Linux 3 host has packages installed that are affected by a vulnerability as referenced in the

    Package updates are available for Alibaba Cloud Linux 3 that fix the following vulnerabilities:

    CVE-2025-62168:
    Squid is a caching proxy for the Web. In Squid versions prior to 7.2, a failure to redact HTTP
    authentication credentials in error handling allows information disclosure. The vulnerability allows a
    script to bypass browser security protections and learn the credentials a trusted client uses to
    authenticate. This potentially allows a remote client to identify security tokens or credentials used
    internally by a web application using Squid for backend load balancing. These attacks do not require Squid
    to be configured with HTTP authentication. The vulnerability is fixed in version 7.2. As a workaround,
    disable debug information in administrator mailto links generated by Squid by configuring squid.conf with
    email_err_data off.

Tenable has extracted the preceding description block directly from the Alibaba Cloud Linux security advisory.

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