"According to the versions of the pam packages installed, the EulerOS installation on the remote host is affected by the
following vulnerabilities :
Linux-PAM through 1.7.2 contains an observable timing discrepancy (CWE-208) in the pam_userdb module's
plaintext-password comparison path in modules/pam_userdb/pam_userdb.c that allows a local or network-
adjacent attacker able to repeatedly drive authentication through a calling service to recover the
plaintext password of a target account by measuring response-timing differences. The comparison uses
strncmp() (or strncasecmp() when PAM_ICASE_ARG is set) preceded by a length-equality check, so the time to
reject a candidate depends on the index of the first differing byte and on whether the candidate's length
matches the stored password, leaking the password length and individual prefix bytes. The vulnerable path
is reached when the administrator configures pam_userdb with crypt=none, with an unrecognized crypt
method, or without a crypt= argument, causing the module to store and compare credentials in
plaintext.(CVE-2026-54411)
Tenable has extracted the preceding description block directly from the EulerOS pam security advisory.
Note that Nessus has not tested for this issue but has instead relied only on the application's self-reported version
number.");
