"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-2026:0563 advisory.

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

    CVE-2026-27631:
    Exiv2 is a C++ library and a command-line utility to read, write, delete and modify Exif, IPTC, XMP and
    ICC image metadata. Prior to version 0.28.8, an uncaught exception was found in Exiv2. The vulnerability
    is in the preview component, which is only triggered when running Exiv2 with an extra command line
    argument, like -pp. Due to an integer overflow, the code attempts to create a huge std::vector, which
    causes Exiv2 to crash with an uncaught exception. This issue has been patched in version 0.28.8.

    CVE-2026-27596:
    Exiv2 is a C++ library and a command-line utility to read, write, delete and modify Exif, IPTC, XMP and
    ICC image metadata. Prior to version 0.28.8, an out-of-bounds read was found in Exiv2. The vulnerability
    is in the preview component, which is only triggered when running Exiv2 with an extra command line
    argument, like -pp. The out-of-bounds read is at a 4GB offset, which usually causes Exiv2 to crash. This
    issue has been patched in version 0.28.8.

    CVE-2026-25884:
    Exiv2 is a C++ library and a command-line utility to read, write, delete and modify Exif, IPTC, XMP and
    ICC image metadata. Prior to version 0.28.8, an out-of-bounds read was found. The vulnerability is in the
    CRW image parser. This issue has been patched in version 0.28.8.

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.");
