    Package        : pyasn1
    CVE ID         : CVE-2026-30922
    Debian Bug     : 1131371

    It was discovered that pyasn1, a generic ASN.1 library for Python, is
    prone to a denial of service vulnerability when decoding ASN.1 data with
    deeply nested structures.

    For the oldstable distribution (bookworm), this problem has been fixed
    in version 0.4.8-3+deb12u2.

    For the stable distribution (trixie), this problem has been fixed in
    version 0.6.1-1+deb13u2.

    We recommend that you upgrade your pyasn1 packages.

    For the detailed security status of pyasn1 please refer to its security
    tracker page at:
    https://security-tracker.debian.org/tracker/pyasn1

    Further information about Debian Security Advisories, how to apply
    these updates to your system and frequently asked questions can be
    found at: https://www.debian.org/security/

    Mailing list: [email protected]

Tenable has extracted the preceding description block directly from the Debian security advisory.

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