"The AlmaLinux 9.2 host has packages installed that are affected by multiple vulnerabilities as referenced in the TuxCare
ALMALINUX9.2:CLSA-2026:1777394614 advisory.

  - Versions of the package semver before 7.5.2 are vulnerable to Regular Expression Denial of Service (ReDoS)
    via the function new Range, when untrusted user data is provided as a range. (CVE-2022-25883)

  - A flaw in Node.js HTTP request handling causes an uncaught `TypeError` when a request is received with a
    header named `__proto__` and the application accesses `req.headersDistinct`. When this occurs,
    `dest[__proto__]` resolves to `Object.prototype` rather than `undefined`, causing `.push()` to be called
    on a non-array. This exception is thrown synchronously inside a property getter and cannot be intercepted
    by `error` event listeners, meaning it cannot be handled without wrapping every `req.headersDistinct`
    access in a `try/catch`. * This vulnerability affects all Node.js HTTP servers on **20.x, 22.x, 24.x, and
    v25.x** (CVE-2026-21710)

  - nghttp2 is an implementation of the Hypertext Transfer Protocol version 2 in C. Prior to version 1.68.1,
    the nghttp2 library stops reading the incoming data when user facing public API
    `nghttp2_session_terminate_session` or `nghttp2_session_terminate_session2` is called by the application.
    They might be called internally by the library when it detects the situation that is subject to connection
    error. Due to the missing internal state validation, the library keeps reading the rest of the data after
    one of those APIs is called. Then receiving a malformed frame that causes FRAME_SIZE_ERROR causes
    assertion failure. nghttp2 v1.68.1 adds missing state validation to avoid assertion failure. No known
    workarounds are available. (CVE-2026-27135)

Note that Nessus has not tested for these issues but has instead relied only on the application's self-reported version
number.");
