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

    A flaw was found in libkcapi. When performing one-shot symmetric cipher operations on large inputs (over
    64 KiB) in stateful modes such as Counter (CTR) or Cipher Block Chaining (CBC), the library improperly
    reuses the Initialization Vector (IV) for each internal data chunk. A remote attacker could potentially
    exploit this by making an application that uses libkcapi process specially crafted large inputs. This can
    lead to a significant weakening of data confidentiality, as the repeated IV use can expose relationships
    in encrypted plaintext, and may also affect data integrity by causing incorrect cryptographic
    processing.(CVE-2026-71225)

    A flaw was found in libkcapi. A local attacker can influence an application that uses the Asynchronous
    Input/Output (AIO) interface. By reusing an AIO-enabled handle after a prior completion error, the
    _kcapi_aio_read_all() function can enter a non-terminating wait loop. This can lead to a persistent denial
    of service, making the affected application or thread unresponsive.(CVE-2026-71227)

    Memory Corruption via Uncanceled AIO Requests on Error: libkcapi's one-shot AIO path can return an error
    before all submitted IOCBs are drained, allowing later kernel writes into caller-owned output
    buffers.(CVE-2026-71226)

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

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