"The version of Tencent Linux installed on the remote TencentOS Server 4 host is prior to tested version. It is,
therefore, affected by a vulnerability as referenced in the TSSA-2025:0522 advisory.

    Package updates are available for TencentOS Server 4 that fix the following vulnerabilities:

    CVE-2025-6297:
    It was discovered that dpkg-deb does not properly sanitize directory permissions when extracting a control
    member into a temporary directory, which is
    documented as being a safe operation even on untrusted data. This may result in leaving temporary files
    behind on cleanup. Given automated and repeated execution of dpkg-deb commands on
    adversarial .deb packages or with well compressible files, placed
    inside a directory with permissions not allowing removal by a non-root
    user, this can end up in a DoS scenario due to causing disk quota
    exhaustion or disk full conditions.

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

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