"The version of Tencent Linux installed on the remote TencentOS Server 3 host is prior to tested version. It is,
therefore, affected by a vulnerability as referenced in the TSSA-2026:0261 advisory.

    Package updates are available for TencentOS Server 3 that fix the following vulnerabilities:

    CVE-2026-3497:
    A flaw was found in the OpenSSH GSSAPI (Generic Security Service Application Program Interface) delta
    patches, as included in various Linux distributions. A remote attacker could exploit this by sending an
    unexpected GSSAPI message type during the key exchange process. This occurs because the
    `sshpkt_disconnect()` function, when called on an error, does not properly terminate the process, leading
    to the continued execution of the program with uninitialized connection variables. Accessing these
    uninitialized variables can lead to undefined behavior, potentially resulting in information disclosure or
    a denial of service.

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.");
