"The AlmaLinux 9.2 host has a package installed that is affected by multiple vulnerabilities as referenced in the TuxCare
ALMALINUX9.2:CLSA-2026:1788381510 advisory.

  - A flaw was found in spice-vdagent. A malicious or compromised SPICE host can trigger an integer overflow
    by sending a specially crafted message. This vulnerability can lead to a heap buffer overflow, causing the
    spice-vdagent daemon to crash and resulting in a Denial of Service (DoS) for the virtual machine. This
    issue requires the SPICE host to be untrusted or compromised for exploitation. (CVE-2026-57965)

  - A path traversal vulnerability was found in spice-vdagent. This flaw allows a malicious or compromised
    SPICE host to write arbitrary files to any location on the guest operating system. This occurs because the
    filename provided by the SPICE host during file transfers is not properly sanitized before being used. An
    attacker could exploit this to write to sensitive locations with the privileges of the spice-vdagent
    process, typically the logged-in user. This issue requires the SPICE host to be untrusted or compromised
    for exploitation. (CVE-2026-57966)

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