"The remote Alibaba Cloud Linux 3 host has a package installed that is affected by a vulnerability as referenced in the
ALINUX3-SA-2026:0196 advisory.

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

    CVE-2026-45447:
    Issue summary: A specially crafted PKCS#7 or S/MIME signed message could
    trigger a use-after-free during PKCS#7 signature verification.
    Impact summary: A use-after-free may result in process crashes, heap
    corruption, or potentially remote code execution.
    When processing a PKCS#7 or S/MIME signed message, if the SignedData
    digestAlgorithms field is present as an empty ASN.1 SET, OpenSSL may
    incorrectly free a caller-owned BIO during PKCS7_verify(). A subsequent
    use of the BIO by the calling application results in a use-after-free
    condition.
    In the common case this occurs when the application later calls
    BIO_free() on the BIO originally passed to PKCS7_verify(). Depending
    on allocator behavior and application-specific BIO usage patterns, this
    may result in a crash or other memory corruption. In some application
    contexts this may potentially be exploitable for remote code execution.
    Applications that process PKCS#7 or S/MIME signed messages using OpenSSL
    PKCS#7 APIs may be affected. Applications using the CMS APIs for this
    processing are not affected.
    The FIPS modules in 4.0, 3.6, 3.5, 3.4, and 3.0 are not affected by this
    issue, as the affected code is outside the OpenSSL FIPS module boundary.

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.");
