"The version of Tencent Linux installed on the remote TencentOS Server 3 host is prior to tested version. It is,
therefore, affected by multiple vulnerabilities as referenced in the TSSA-2026:0971 advisory.

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

    CVE-2026-14380:
    DBI versions before 1.650 for Perl are vulnerable to code injection via caller-influenced Profile.

    When a string is assigned to a DBI handle's Profile attribute, DBI splits it into path, package and
    arguments, and interpolates the package part in a string eval with no validation of the package name.

    Any caller-influenced value that reaches the Profile attribute is therefore arbitrary Perl code execution,
    including calls to run system commands.

    The Profile attribute can be set from three different sources that can carry untrusted data: the
    DBI_PROFILE environment variable, a direct attribute assignment, and a DSN driver-attribute clause
    dbi:Driver(Profile=>SPEC):db.

    An attacker controlling any of those inputs runs arbitrary Perl in the host process. The strongest remote
    position is a network-exposed DBI::Gofer / DBI::ProxyServer whose per-request DSN reaches the Profile
    attribute, letting a client execute code on the broker host.

    CVE-2026-14739:
    DBI versions before 1.650 for Perl have a heap overflow when preparsing SQL statements with an extreme
    number of placeholders.

    The fix for CVE-2026-10879 did not allocate enough memory to handle approximately 1.2-million
    placeholders.

    DBI version 1.650 sets a hard limit of 99,999 placeholders.

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.");
