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

    CVE-2026-75900:
    An out-of-bounds read vulnerability was found in swtpm's SWTPM_NVRAM_CheckHeader() function. The entry
    guard checks the buffer length against sizeof(bh), where bh is a pointer, instead of sizeof(*bh), the
    actual struct size. This allows an undersized buffer to pass validation, causing a 2-byte heap overread on
    64-bit systems (6 bytes on 32-bit) when accessing the totlen field.

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.");
