"The AlmaLinux 9.2 host has a package installed that is affected by multiple vulnerabilities as referenced in the TuxCare
ALMALINUX9.2:CLSA-2026:1784820017 advisory.
- During chain building, the amount of work that is done is not correctly limited when a large number of
intermediate certificates are passed in VerifyOptions.Intermediates, which can lead to a denial of
service. This affects both direct users of crypto/x509 and users of crypto/tls. (CVE-2026-32280)
- The ToASCII and ToUnicode functions incorrectly accept Punycode-encoded labels that decode to an ASCII-
only label. For example, ToUnicode(xn--example-.com) incorrectly returns the name example.com rather
than an error. This behavior can lead to privilege escalation in programs using the idna package. For
example, a program which performs privilege checks on the ASCII hostname may reject example.com but
permit xn--example-.com. If that program subsequently converts the ASCII hostname to Unicode, it will
inadvertently permits access to the Unicode name example.com. (CVE-2026-39821)
Note that Nessus has not tested for these issues but has instead relied only on the application's self-reported version
number.");
