"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-2025:0744 advisory.

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

    CVE-2025-9086:
    1. A cookie is set using the `secure` keyword for `https://target`
    2. curl is redirected to or otherwise made to speak with `http://target` (same
     hostname, but using clear text HTTP) using the same cookie set
    3. The same cookie name is set - but with just a slash as path (`path='/'`).
     Since this site is not secure, the cookie *should* just be ignored.
    4. A bug in the path comparison logic makes curl read outside a heap buffer
     boundary

    The bug either causes a crash or it potentially makes the comparison come to
    the wrong conclusion and lets the clear-text site override the contents of the
    secure cookie, contrary to expectations and depending on the memory contents
    immediately following the single-byte allocation that holds the path.

    The presumed and correct behavior would be to plainly ignore the second set of
    the cookie since it was already set as secure on a secure host so overriding
    it on an insecure host should not be okay.

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.");
