"The remote Alibaba Cloud Linux 3 host has packages installed that are affected by multiple vulnerabilities as referenced
in the ALINUX3-SA-2026:0158 advisory.

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

    CVE-2026-3039:
    BIND servers that are configured to use TKEY-based authentication via GSS-API tokens are vulnerable to
    excessive memory consumption when receiving and processing maliciously-constructed packets.  Typically
    these servers will be found in Active Directory integrated DNS deployments and/or Kerberos-secured DNS
    environments.
    This issue affects BIND 9 versions 9.0.0 through 9.16.50, 9.18.0 through 9.18.48, 9.20.0 through 9.20.22,
    9.21.0 through 9.21.21, 9.9.3-S1 through 9.16.50-S1, 9.18.11-S1 through 9.18.48-S1, and 9.20.9-S1 through
    9.20.22-S1.

    CVE-2026-5946:
    Multiple flaws have been identified in `named` related to the handling of DNS messages whose CLASS is not
    Internet (`IN`)  for example, `CHAOS` or `HESIOD`, or DNS messages that specify meta-classes (`ANY` or
    `NONE`) in the question section. Specially crafted requests reaching the affected code paths 
    recursion, dynamic updates (`UPDATE`), zone change notifications (`NOTIFY`), or processing of
    `IN`-specific record types in non-`IN` data  can cause assertion failures in `named`.
    This issue affects BIND 9 versions 9.11.0 through 9.16.50, 9.18.0 through 9.18.48, 9.20.0 through 9.20.22,
    9.21.0 through 9.21.21, 9.11.3-S1 through 9.16.50-S1, 9.18.11-S1 through 9.18.48-S1, and 9.20.9-S1 through
    9.20.22-S1.

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