"The AlmaLinux 9.2 host has packages installed that are affected by a vulnerability as referenced in the TuxCare
ALMALINUX9.2:CLSA-2026:1788629925 advisory.
- Nmap through 7.99 does not keep the IPv6 extension-header walk within the captured packet in
ipv6_get_data_primitive (libnetutil/netutil.cc), so the pointer advances past the buffer and the
remaining-length computation underflows to a large value. A scanned target or on-path attacker returning a
crafted IPv6 response with a truncated extension header can trigger out-of-bounds reads and a crash during
raw IPv6 scans. (CVE-2026-58058)
Note that Nessus has not tested for this issue but has instead relied only on the application's self-reported version
number.");
