"The remote MiracleLinux 8 host has packages installed that are affected by a vulnerability as referenced in the
AXBA:2026-270:01 advisory.
- urllib3 is an HTTP client library for Python. urllib3's streaming API is designed for the efficient
handling of large HTTP responses by reading the content in chunks, rather than loading the entire response
body into memory at once. urllib3 can perform decoding or decompression based on the HTTP `Content-
Encoding` header (e.g., `gzip`, `deflate`, `br`, or `zstd`). When using the streaming API, the library
decompresses only the necessary bytes, enabling partial content consumption. Starting in version 1.22 and
prior to version 2.6.3, for HTTP redirect responses, the library would read the entire response body to
drain the connection and decompress the content unnecessarily. This decompression occurred even before any
read methods were called, and configured read limits did not restrict the amount of decompressed data. As
a result, there was no safeguard against decompression bombs. A malicious server could exploit this to
trigger excessive resource consumption on the client. Applications and libraries are affected when they
stream content from untrusted sources by setting `preload_content=False` when they do not disable
redirects. Users should upgrade to at least urllib3 v2.6.3, in which the library does not decode content
of redirect responses when `preload_content=False`. If upgrading is not immediately possible, disable
redirects by setting `redirect=False` for requests to untrusted source. (CVE-2026-21441)
Note that Nessus has not tested for this issue but has instead relied only on the application's self-reported version
number.");
