"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-2026:1397 advisory.

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

    CVE-2026-53939:
    OpenIDC/cjose is a C library implementing the Javascript Object Signing and Encryption (JOSE). In versions
    0.6.1 through 0.6.2.5, when cjose encrypts a JWE using an AES-CBC-HMAC content-encryption algorithm
    (A128CBC-HS256, A192CBC-HS384, or A256CBC-HS512) together with any key-management algorithm that generates
    a fresh content-encryption key (CEK), the CEK is all zero bytes instead of being randomly generated. The
    resulting JWE is therefore encrypted and authenticated under a fixed, publicly known key, so anyone who
    obtains the JWE can recover the plaintext and forge or modify the content. This is fixed in version
    0.6.2.6 by _cjose_jwe_set_cek_aes_cbc() generating the CEK from RAND_bytes. A regression test asserts that
    the encrypted_key differs across two encryptions for each AES-CBC-HMAC variant. Until upgrading, for data
    encrypted with cjose, three options are available. Use an AES-GCM enc (A128GCM / A192GCM / A256GCM)
    instead of an AES-CBC-HMAC enc,  use alg=dir with a caller-supplied CEK, or avoid using cjose for JWE
    encryption with the affected algorithm pair. These are mitigations for new ciphertexts only; data already
    encrypted under the zero key remains compromised and should be re-encrypted (and any secrets it contained
    rotated).

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.");
