    Changes with nginx 1.28.1                                        23 Dec 2025

        *) Security: processing of a specially crafted login/password when using
           the none authentication method in the ngx_mail_smtp_module might
           cause worker process memory disclosure to the authentication server
           (CVE-2025-53859).

        *) Bugfix: a segmentation fault might occur in a worker process if the
           try_files directive and proxy_pass with a URI were used.

        *) Bugfix: in handling Host and :authority header lines with equal
           values when using HTTP/2; the bug had appeared in 1.17.9.

        *) Bugfix: in handling Host header lines with a port when using
           HTTP/3.

        *) Bugfix: an XCLIENT command didn't use the xtext encoding.
           Thanks to Igor Morgenstern of Aisle Research.

        *) Bugfix: in SSL certificate caching during reconfiguration.

        *) Bugfix: in delta-seconds processing in the Cache-Control backend
           response header line.

        *) Change: the native nginx/Windows binary release is now built using
           Windows SDK 10.

        *) Bugfix: nginx could not be built on NetBSD 10.0.

        *) Bugfix: in HTTP/3.

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

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