"The version of OISF Suricata installed on the remote host is 8.x prior to 8.0.5. It is, therefore, affected by
multiple vulnerabilities, including:

  - LDAP transaction state could store an unbounded number of responses. Because LDAP can be processed over UDP,
    crafted traffic may cause Suricata to consume excessive memory, potentially resulting in denial of service.
    (CVE-2026-45768)

  - A Lua rule that registers too many flow variables can corrupt Lua detection state and may bypass Suricata's
    restricted Lua sandbox. This requires an affected Lua script/rule to be loaded. Excessive flow variables
    being registered may also cause Suricata to crash. (CVE-2026-45770)

  - Suricata's IP defragmentation code could deadlock when processing fragmented traffic containing an
    encapsulated tunnel protocol whose payload is itself fragmented. (CVE-2026-46352)

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