"The AlmaLinux 9.2 host has packages installed that are affected by multiple vulnerabilities as referenced in the TuxCare
ALMALINUX9.2:CLSA-2026:1779121308 advisory.

  - In PHP versions 8.2.* before 8.2.31, 8.3.* before 8.3.31, 8.4.* before 8.4.21, and 8.5.* before 8.5.6, the
    SOAP extension's object deduplication mechanism stores pointers to PHP objects in a global map without
    incrementing their reference counts. When an apache:Map node contains duplicate keys, processing the
    second entry overwrites the first in the temporary result map, freeing the original PHP object while its
    stale pointer remains in the map. A subsequent href reference to the freed node can copy the dangling
    pointer into the result. As PHP string allocations can reclaim the freed memory region, an attacker with
    control over the SOAP request body can exploit this use-after-free to achieve remote code execution.
    (CVE-2026-6722)

  - In PHP versions 8.2.* before 8.2.31, 8.3.* before 8.3.31, 8.4.* before 8.4.21, 8.5.* before 8.5.6, due to
    improper sanitation of user data, it allows an attacker to compose an URL, which will cause the target to
    execute arbitrary JavaScript code (XSS) on the target's machine when the target is viewing the PHP-FPM
    status page. (CVE-2026-6735)

  - In PHP versions 8.2.* before 8.2.31, 8.3.* before 8.3.31, 8.4.* before 8.4.21, and 8.5.* before 8.5.6,
    some functions, including urldecode(), pass signed char to ctype functions (like isxdigit()). On the
    systems with default signed char and optimized table-lookup ctype functions - such as NetBSD - this can
    lead to accessing array with negative offset, which can trigger a denial of service. (CVE-2026-7258)

  - In PHP versions 8.2.* before 8.2.31, 8.3.* before 8.3.31, 8.4.* before 8.4.21, and 8.5.* before 8.5.6, a
    mismatch between encoding lists in Oniguruma and mbfl leads to a NULL pointer dereference, resulting in a
    segmentation fault and denial of service. The vulnerability is exploitable when user-controlled input can
    influence the encoding passed to mb_regex_encoding(). (CVE-2026-7259)

  - In PHP versions 8.2.* before 8.2.31, 8.3.* before 8.3.31, 8.4.* before 8.4.21, and 8.5.* before 8.5.6,
    when SoapServer is configured with SOAP_PERSISTENCE_SESSION, the handler object is persisted across
    requests via session storage. However, in the case SOAP requests results in an error, the persistance is
    handled incorrectly, resulting in freeing the object while keeping a pointer to it, which may lead to use-
    after-free. This may lead to memory corruption, information disclosure, or process crashes, with
    confidentiality, integrity, and availability impact on the vulnerable system. (CVE-2026-7261)

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