"The remote MiracleLinux 8 host has packages installed that are affected by a vulnerability as referenced in the
AXBA:2026-1420:03 advisory.

  - GNU coreutils unexpand is vulnerable to a heap-based buffer overflow due to an integer overflow during
    buffer allocation when processing large tab stop (-t) values. The multiplication used to calculate the
    allocation size can wrap around, resulting in an undersized buffer. When processing crafted input,
    subsequent writes exceed the allocated memory, leading to an outofbounds heap write. When running GNU
    coreutils unexpand with attacker-provided large tab stop (-t) arguments, this behavior leads to a crash
    and potentially achieve a heap write primitive depending on memory layout. This issue has been fixed in
    the commit b60a159fdc5bfcf9988d3a4cb6f53abe8ad5d35d (CVE-2026-56392)

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