"The version of Symless Synergy installed on the remote host is 3.x prior to 3.9.1. It is, therefore, affected by a
vulnerability in the bundled node-forge library, which Synergy 3 uses to create its own certificate.

  - node-forge through 1.4.0 fails to validate element count in nested DigestAlgorithm sequences during RSA PKCS#1
    v1.5 signature verification. Attackers can embed garbage bytes inside the DigestAlgorithm sequence to forge
    valid signatures for arbitrary messages using low-exponent RSA keys. This is an incomplete fix for
    CVE-2026-33894. (CVE-2026-85393)

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