"According to the versions of the qemu packages installed, the EulerOS installation on the remote host is affected by the
following vulnerabilities :

    A flaw was found in the QEMU Guest Agent (qga). A local unprivileged user can exploit a vulnerability in
    the guest-ssh-add-authorized-keys command handler by manipulating symbolic links. This can occur either
    through a deterministic directory-symlink bypass or a Time-of-Check to Time-of-Use (TOCTOU) file-symlink
    race. Successful exploitation allows the attacker to gain ownership of arbitrary root-owned files or
    directories, leading to root access. This vulnerability requires an external management layer (e.g.,
    libvirt) to trigger the affected code path.(CVE-2026-12080)

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

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