"The AlmaLinux 9.2 host has packages installed that are affected by a vulnerability as referenced in the TuxCare
ALMALINUX9.2:CLSA-2026:1781274016 advisory.
- In hostapd 2.10 and earlier, the PKEX code remains active even after a successful PKEX association. An
attacker that successfully bootstrapped public keys with another entity using PKEX in the past, will be
able to subvert a future bootstrapping by passively observing public keys, re-using the encrypting element
Qi and subtracting it from the captured message M (X = M - Qi). This will result in the public ephemeral
key X; the only element required to subvert the PKEX association. (CVE-2022-37660)
Note that Nessus has not tested for this issue but has instead relied only on the application's self-reported version
number.");
