"The version of Tencent Linux installed on the remote TencentOS Server 4 host is prior to tested version. It is,
therefore, affected by multiple vulnerabilities as referenced in the TSSA-2025:0972 advisory.

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

    CVE-2025-66418:
    urllib3 is a user-friendly HTTP client library for Python. Starting in version 1.24 and prior to 2.6.0,
    the number of links in the decompression chain was unbounded allowing a malicious server to insert a
    virtually unlimited number of compression steps leading to high CPU usage and massive memory allocation
    for the decompressed data. This vulnerability is fixed in 2.6.0.

    CVE-2025-50181:
    urllib3 is a user-friendly HTTP client library for Python. Prior to 2.5.0, it is possible to disable
    redirects for all requests by instantiating a PoolManager and specifying retries in a way that disable
    redirects. By default, requests and botocore users are not affected. An application attempting to mitigate
    SSRF or open redirect vulnerabilities by disabling redirects at the PoolManager level will remain
    vulnerable. This issue has been patched in version 2.5.0.

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

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