"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-2026:1349 advisory.

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

    CVE-2026-119197:
    pyasn1 is a generic ASN.1 library for Python. Prior to 0.6.5, binary REAL decoding builds a large mantissa
    one octet at a time by shifting a growing integer and slicing the remaining byte string. Attacker-
    controlled ASN.1 includes a binary-encoded REAL with a large mantissa and reaches BER, CER, or DER
    decode(), with or without a schema containing REAL. RealPayloadDecoder.valueDecoder repeatedly performs a
    left shift, OR, and suffix copy for every mantissa octet, making decode time quadratic in mantissa length.
    A comparatively small REAL value can hold a decoding worker on one CPU core for seconds or longer and
    cause availability loss. This issue is fixed in version 0.6.5.

    CVE-2026-119196:
    pyasn1 is a generic ASN.1 library for Python. Prior to 0.6.5, constructed BIT STRING decoding repeatedly
    shifts and copies the complete bit value accumulated from earlier fragments. Attacker-controlled BER or
    CER input contains many constructed BIT STRING fragments; schema-driven DER also accepts a definite-length
    constructed BIT STRING. BitStringPayloadDecoder repeatedly calls BitString.fromOctetString with the prior
    bitString as prepend, shifting an ever-growing SizedInteger for each fragment and causing quadratic work.
    Large fragmented values can exhaust CPU during decode() without requiring later conversion or formatting.
    This issue is fixed in version 0.6.5.

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.");
