"The remote Alibaba Cloud Linux 3 host has packages installed that are affected by multiple vulnerabilities as referenced
in the ALINUX3-SA-2026:0216 advisory.
Package updates are available for Alibaba Cloud Linux 3 that fix the following vulnerabilities:
CVE-2026-27145:
(*x509.Certificate).VerifyHostname previously called matchHostnames in a loop over all DNS Subject
Alternative Name (SAN) entries. This caused strings.Split(host, .) to execute repeatedly on the same
input hostname. With a large DNS SAN list, verification costs scaled quadratically based on the number of
SAN entries multiplied by the hostname's label count. Because x509.Verify validates hostnames before
building the certificate chain, this overhead occurred even for untrusted certificates.
CVE-2026-39821:
The ToASCII and ToUnicode functions incorrectly accept Punycode-encoded labels that decode to an ASCII-
only label. For example, ToUnicode(xn--example-.com) incorrectly returns the name example.com rather
than an error. This behavior can lead to privilege escalation in programs using the idna package. For
example, a program which performs privilege checks on the ASCII hostname may reject example.com but
permit xn--example-.com. If that program subsequently converts the ASCII hostname to Unicode, it will
inadvertently permits access to the Unicode name example.com.
CVE-2026-39822:
On Unix systems, opening a file in an os.Root improperly follows symlinks to locations outside of the Root
when the final path component of the a path is a symbolic link and the path ends in /. For example,
'root.Open(symlink/)' will open symlink even when symlink is a symbolic link pointing outside of the
root.
Tenable has extracted the preceding description block directly from the Alibaba Cloud Linux security advisory.
Note that Nessus has not tested for these issues but has instead relied only on the application's self-reported version
number.");
